Bristol design studio Re:Right Design works on the Hayes Pavilion for this year's Glastonbury festival which is made from seaweed in order to show off how sets can be formed without relying on plastic. This is making a return for the second time in a row to explore the infrastructure even more to and how it can be even more sustainable.
Kostur explains to Dezeen, "A big part of our mission is to move material science out of the lab and into the real world. So we're looking at the creative industries – mainly set building, scenic painting, festivals, events – where products and material turnover is really quick and lifecycle isn't really considered at all."
