Tyvek experimentation course led by Luciano Dell’Orefice and Valentin Dubois

During the spring semester of 2021, BA students in Interior Architecture were asked to reflect upon the technical and aesthetic properties of Tyvek and come up with objects that exploit them. Based on the transversal approach advocated in the Multi-materials course, the students explored the potential of Tyvek through principled models and experiments in order to create a prototype from the material samples provided.

The most interesting research and development projects were integrated into HEAD – Genève’s material library.
