TERRAMAC [living_3Dcarpet]
Perhaps the best way of welcoming the outside/inside could be by means of a biodegradable carpet. But not like any other carpet, this might include a particular contour or resemble your favorite scenic landscape inside your own habitable space (home or office). Time of Moss is a collaboration by Japanese plant artist Makoto Azuma and Unitika company.
Terramac is made out of a 3D-knitted mesh plant-based polylactic acid fibers that supports the plant’s root system. It is completely biodegradable that could last approximately 10 years.
Synthesized features:
– Properties:
· natural/biodegradable, light, and durable
– Applications:
