For the Futurium museum Berlin I collaborated with the mycobiologist Prof. Dr. Vera Meyer from TU Berlin and the biotechnologist Alessandro Volpato. We created a reusable mould for growing a mushroom brick within 10-15 days.

Various plug-in options allow to build large structures without additional connection materials. In a series of citizen science workshops a mycelium structure was grown which was exhibited in the museums Lab.
