Last year we explored the possibilities of PHA through the first large-scale 3D printed lighting object made from this biopolymer. And just a few weeks ago in Milano, we presented Zero Degrees by OXMAN — continuing the conversation around bio-fabrication, material ecology and regenerative design that pioneers like Professor Neri Oxman have been pushing forward for years. This cutting board by BitByBit is a simple everyday object, made from 100% PHA and produced in the Netherlands.

As an award-winning platform ROOTS is setting a new standard in sustainable design. We rethink design through living systems—presenting a clear vision for living and hospitality spaces where health, balance and connection to nature are central.

A powerful example of this approach is their regenerative Christmas tree system:the tree is topped halfway and sold, after which a new leader grows from the same trunk. After around four years, another tree can be harvested from the same root system—without destroying it. The soil remains intact, the mycelium network stays alive. The tree remains, but more importantly: the system stays healthy.
