This BioDesign Competition invites emerging designers, architects, and artists to explore the creative potential of bacterial cellulose and biologically integrated color systems. Participants are encouraged to develop commercially relevant design proposals focusing on self-dyed microbial leather. The goal is to imagine new products and objects where material and color emerge simultaneously through microbial co-cultures.
