👀 Looking back on 3 fantastic days of @materialdistrict!!

💫 This wonderful platform was the perfect place to pre-launch SeaWood Materials. The positive feedback of the visitors gave us an enormous boost to take the next steps towards full production in 2024, and to collaborate on some great piloting projects this year.

🌿 But besides this, I was really excited to experience the huge interest in general in alternative, #sustainable materials - the questions the visitors asked, details about sourcing and processing, the scope of operation, the why behind it all. You can feel this is not a nice-to-have-thingy for the happy few anymore, but a serious #transformation of the sector in practice.

🙌 Also fully enjoyed all the other sustainable materials that were shown, the (new) connections with other material makers and our nice stand neighbours @crush_on_nature and @fibershed.nl (check out their work!).

👋 Special thanks to @merlijnboer for all your help with the stand, @marije_remigius and @fictionfactory.amsterdam for the beautiful base blocks that we could re-use/transform from the Floriade expo, @theseaweedco and @northseafarmers for the weed, @materialdistrict Innovation Fund for the Innovation Hotspot, @bluecity010 for your continuous support in our journey to make that impact, and last but not least @teya_pmkv, @lisanne_petersss and @astartekrijgsman of @seawood_materials for doing this together, and off course all you visitors that showed your interest - in the end we make the material for you!
📣 #Prelaunch @seawood_materials! From 8 to 1 📣 #Prelaunch @seawood_materials!

From 8 to 10 March, we will pre-launch SeaWood Materials for the interior market at @materialdistrict Utrecht 2023.

👀 Do you want see, feel and experience the new material range? Join us on this exciting journey towards market introduction in 2024? We would be delighted to welcome you at #Innovation #Hotspot #E27!

We are looking forward to see you there!

🙏 A big thank you to #MaterialDistrictInnovationFund for supporting us and other material innovators aiming to contribut to #Circularity, #Wellbeing and #Energytransition.

🌿 Seaweed for kitchen fronts! ✨ A #highlight 🌿 Seaweed for kitchen fronts!

✨ A #highlight for us in 2022 was making these kitchen fronts from #seaweed for Iris van Asselt and her family to test them in their tiny house in Koedijk.

🙌 Iris was one of our early supporters from the very beginning, generous in her time and energy to find a way to make functional kitchen fronts from @seawood_materials on bio-board that would fit their sustainable lifestyle ánd interior design, as she is also advisor at @studioduurzaamwonen. We cannot thank her enough.

📺 In this week's episode of TV-program @binnenstebuitentv @kro.ncrv, Iris and Roland show their beautiful tiny house and Iris shares how she re-uses an old kitchen to create a contemporary and sustainable design.

👀 You can see the clip here (in Dutch): https://lnkd.in/ekxw-kWZ
 
💠 It is still a test and there are things to improve, but we #sea a future that is bright blue! Happy holidays!

💫 Is it too early to look back on the past year 💫 Is it too early to look back on the past year already?

❤️‍🔥 This project was a real highlight for us in 2022!!

🏗 For the renovation of the Provence House of South Holland, one floor was fully dedicated to circular and biobased interior elements.

🌱 BlueBlocks made deep red acoustic panels of the @seawood_materials range for this ambitious project.

🙏🙏 A big thank you to @mooizuidholland and @gielissenwooninrichting for granting and realising this project, @teya_pmkv and @lisanne_petersss for all the hard work you put in the panels, @fruitleatherrotterdam for everything, @groenebouwmaterialen for the biobased backing material of SeaWood, @bluecity010 and @bluecity_lab for making things possible and @theseaweedco and @northseafarmers for your continuous support in the wonderful world of seaweed!

THANK YOU!!

Seaweed of Seawood?

Zo bijzonder, om nu de keuken deuren te hebben waar ik naar heb uitgekeken!

Deze speciale keuken komt niet bij een keukenleverancier vandaan. 
Via @marktplaats vonden we deze 30 jaar oude keuken die we ook nog gratis mochten ophalen. Precies de maat die wij nodig hadden! Ik wilde de basis graag behouden maar voor de fronten, het blad en de achterwand wilde ik iets innovatiefs. 

Gelukkig ontdekte ik @seawood_materials en vroeg of zij de fronten van mijn kasten wilde maken. Hier hadden ze nog geen ervaring mee maar zowel zij als wij wilden deze uitdaging aan gaan. Na overleggen, wachten, kleuren kiezen, keuzes maken, opmeten, testen, zagen, persen, afwerken en alles wat er nog meer nodig was is dit het resultaat geworden en ik ben er super blij mee! 
De kleur, de structuur alles klopt gewoon! Ik wordt ontzettend enthousiast van het materiaal. Super bijzonder en waardevol dat een snelgroeiend organisme voor deze toepassing gebruikt kan worden. Ik denk echt dat zeewier een grote rol in de toekomst kan spelen. En geweldig dat er in de platen ook nog een reststroom van gipsplaten verwerkt is.

Mijn dank gaat uit naar alle mensen die geholpen hebben om deze pilot tot een succes te brengen, en in het bijzonder naar @cuypersmarjanne. Het was heel fijn om samen te werken en ik heb enorme bewondering voor je doorzettingsvermogen, je positiviteit  en je geduld wat je nodig hebt om al het onderzoek en de testen die jullie doen tot een goed en mooi materiaal te brengen.

Mijn keuken is nog niet af. Binnenkort komt er een circulair en biobased aanrechtblad en ik ben bezig met een achterwand gemaakt van afval. Wordt vervolgd!

Wat is het toch fijn om duurzaam interieur ontwerper te zijn!

Since last year October, BlueBlocks participates i Since last year October, BlueBlocks participates in the research program Zero Emission Building that is led by @biobased.creations and @tno.innovation. 

Together with other biomaterial producers, architects, builders and biobased building experts we do technical, economical and ecological research to gather data, identify bottlenecks and find ways to overcome them - for an emission-free built environment.

Besides the research results from each individual organisation, the main value lies in the collaborative workshops and relations that are built along the way - together we can do this!!

💫 Today a special project was delivered to Iris 💫 Today a special project was delivered to Iris @duurzameinterieurstylist, who has been a  supporter of our seaweed material from the very beginning. Her ideas and energy were, and still are so valuable for us.

🏡 Living in the eco-community @liberterracommunity, she built her own tiny house and lives an inspiring sustainable lifestyle, while sharing her knowledge with others via open house days (this Saturday again!), presentations and her work as interior stylist.

🌟 For people like us, people like her are gold. She (and her family!) are willing to test SeaWood as a pilot for kitchen doors, knowing that it may fail, behave in unexspected ways, shows first production flaws and is treated in a new friendly manner to protect it from water and dirt (New meaning also uncertainty of the effect on the material).

💙 Thank you Iris, for you kindness, patience and enthusiasm! Hereby a public promise that you have free access to the market-ready version of SeaWood Materials in case your kitchen doors need replacement 🙂

repost via @inst0 from @materiae_co SeaWood - Blue repost via @inst0 from @materiae_co SeaWood - BlueBlocks :

@seawood_materials est une gamme de panneaux fabriqués par l'entreprise BlueBlocks, à partir d'algues et de déchets de cellulose. L’algue est le composant principal du Seawood, sa croissance rapide permet de cultiver et récolter de manière durable, sans avoir besoin de terres arables, d'eau douce, d'engrais ou de pesticides. De plus, pendant leur croissance, les algues absorbent le CO2 et l'excès d'azote des eaux salées, restaurant ainsi la qualité de l'eau et la biodiversité.

Les propriétés naturelles des algues suffisent afin de ne pas ajouter de liant supplémentaire, ce qui permet de recycler le matériau après utilisation. Enfin les propriétés du Seawood sont assez semblables à celles du bois.

Propriétés : acoustique, propriétés similaires au bois.

Seawood - BlueBlocks :

@seawood_materials is a range of panels manufactured by the company BlueBlocks, using algae and cellulose waste. Seaweed is the main component of Seawood and its rapid growth allows for sustainable cultivation and harvesting without the need for arable land, fresh water, fertilisers or pesticides. In addition, as they grow, the algae absorb CO2 and excess nitrogen from salt water, restoring water quality and biodiversity.
 
The natural properties of the algae are sufficient to avoid the addition of any further binders, allowing the material to be recycled after use. Finally, the properties of Seawood are quite similar to those of wood.
 
Properties : Acoustic, similar to wood

🗯'Hurks and Caspar de Haan are preparing for a future in which we want to achieve a positive environmental impact through construction'.

💡 They developed a housing concept 'Da Vinci Green' to give form to the ambition and to provide insight into the impact and CO2 footprint.

🌊 @seawood_materials takes part in the project with a modular wall module of reclaimed wood of Velux Windows of #CircuWall and isolation material from @icell_isolering of recycled paper.

🌟 Now shown at @dutchdesignweek at Strijp-S in the Embassy of Circular and Biobased Building until October 30!
