- Sculptural MyceliumMycelium-based composite (MBC), composed of hemp shiv, shredded cardboard, wheat bran and reishi (Ganoderma Lucidum) millet grain spawn. The sample has been grown for 14 days before being released from its mould and allowed to grow further on the previously unexposed faces for 4 days. This creates a uniquely varied surface quality and texture; once dried, the front surface is more leathery, with orange and brown colouration and varied surface texture, while the edges and underside are white and soft like suede.

- MYLEAMylea™ is a leather-like material derived from mushroom mycelium, inspired by mycelium tempeh. It is cultivated using local agricultural biomass waste as a nutrient source for the mycelium's growth. Mylea™ naturally exhibits a brownish hue, while black variants are achieved through natural dyeing. The material's structure consists entirely of a natural layer of mycelium fibre, creating a durable and robust bond.
