Interbeing Lab explores the relationships among materials, fabrication technologies, and (more-than-) human experience.
We develop materials, tools, and interactive systems that enable new forms of making, living, and relating. Our work combines design research, material experimentation, and emerging technologies to advance accessible, sustainable, and inclusive futures.
