Iris Veentjer – Nieuwe regeneratieve textielketen
Iris Veentjer is the owner of Studio i Focus, a design studio for innovative materials research and experimental design. She is involved in freelance projects for various companies and institutions and works on her projects such as Bakkie Trots and RietGoed. With the projects, Iris hopes to not only offer a beautiful product, but above all to contribute to the social discussion about sustainability, climate change, social awareness and regenerative working.
With one of the current projects, RietGoed, she is researching and developing the possibility of making textiles from the reed cigar plant (cattail). An innovative process to contribute to natural soil recovery, combating soil subsidence and preventing greenhouse gases from the peat meadow area.
