Fashion designer Suzanne Lee talks about how “biofabrication” or using bacteria and fungi to grow materials such as fabric, furniture, construction materials and packaging will revolutionize manufacturing. Biofabricated materials can be produced in a shorter amount of time than traditional materials, use fewer resources, create less waste, and are biodegradable. The concept is simple: Harnessing life to create products. According to Lee, “life can be our greatest collaborator.”
