Intro

For this assignment I will be thinking about a concept for future applications for my material. I'll be making mood boards to give an idea.

1. Tulip agar bioplastic

Souvenir

When seeing tulips I would think of Holland. That's why I think it would make a nice souvenir. The plants stay alive and look very nice inside the bioplastic for a long time.

2. Agar Agar foam

Mousemats

I wasn't exactly sure what to do with this material because it didn't made me think about something specific. The touch did kind of reminded me of the old classic mouse mat feeling, especially the part where you rest your wrist on.

3. Hard agar agar bioplastic

Durable kitchen tools, cutlery, straws, cups

Because of it's good quality, behavior and feeling you could make a lot of stuff out of this. The first thing that came in my mind were cups and straws but you could basically replace any hard plastic material with this bioplastic.

4. Flexible gelatine foam

Soundproof studios I think because of it's thickness and different layers it would make very good noise isolation material. The downside of it is that it doesn't smell good.

5. Firm gelatine foam

Cases & latex like clothing

I was thinking of cases because it's very hard to make a scratch into the material. The inside of the foam makes the material protected if it would be a case. Because the gelatine foam looks a bit like latex (on the side where there is no foam) it would be cool to make latex like clothing with it. You could make anything from tight dresses to cleaning gloves with it.

6. Dried fruits agar bioplastic

Miniature fantasy house

Because of the colors and the fairy vibes it gives it reminded me of hairy potter kind of genres. I think it would be great material to make a floor with when making a miniature fantasy house. It has the exact right colors and the dried fruits inside the material gives it a nice detail.
