Teammembers: Sofie Kelchtermans, Jony Mille, Henri T'Kint
Coaches: Angela Pisani ; Elise Verkindt Syros + UGent (Francesca)
The challenge
Bio-based colours are an interesting alternative to artificial colours. Although natural colours have an ancient tradition, many challenges remain open, for example:
-
How can we introduce this knowledge in our IO curriculum?
-
What activities can engage with these colours (sketching? prototyping? etc.)
-
How can we engage different stakeholders and actors in this mission? How can we make this a self-sustainable system?
-
Can the waste stream of avocado pits be used in this process?
