Description:

Marlén, biodigital architect and Manuel, biodigital designer and craftsman, make up the Laboratorio Biomimético, a project based on biomimesis, that is, on the attentive observation of nature, directly through field trips, or indirectly, with readings and documentaries. Through this observation and profound understanding, they seek to implement the solutions of nature, a designer with thousands of years of experience, to human challenges. One of the areas of the laboratory is ARBIO, dedicated to the production of biodegradable fabrics that the made by kÖs firm of Constantino and Yolanda uses to make some of its pieces. This collaboration is part of the key points of the lab, which seeks synergies with designers, experts, researchers, and the community in general. Constantino learned to sew with his mother and later trained in Fashion and Clothing. Inspired by his research and interest in textile history and historical recreation, he established the made by kÖs brand in 2013, combining traditional inspiration with contemporary designs, after a work of reproducing old pieces based on paintings and photographs with traditional scenes, especially from the 19th century. After a few years, Yolanda joined, who also began sewing with her mother, as well as with her grandmother and her aunts. She is in charge of reproducing the
pieces based on Constantino’s model, as well as the more business work, related to suppliers and orders. Her line of garments, with very selected projects, are produced on a small scale and locally, proposing pieces inspired by rural areas, village life and traditional clothing, incorporating current elements to give rise to handmade designer pieces
