Formafantasma are a design studio who investigate the ecological, historical, political and social forces shaping the discipline of design today. Their extensive client list includes Prada, Hermes, Vitra Design Museum, Fendi, The Venice Bienale, Rijksmuseum, and the National Museum of Norway.This conversation was recorded at The Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, in the middle of feb 2025 just before the opening of Studio Formafantasma's exhibition Oltre Terra. Oltre Terra is is an ongoing investigation of the history, ecology, and global dynamics of the extraction and production of wool. The show will run until July 13th so make sure to check it out..Oltre Terra at Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam - https://www.stedelijk.nl/nl/tentoonstellingen/formafantasmaFormafantasma website - https://formafantasma.com/studioFormafantasma on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/formafantasma/Cambio - https://www.serpentinegalleries.org/whats-on/formafantasma-cambio/Geo-Design at Design Academy Eindhoven: https://www.designacademy.nl/page/5809/geo%E2%80%94designInterview with Tim White - Exlana sheep breeder https://vimeo.com/780306084Artek x Formafantasma collaboration: https://www.artek.fi/en/company/designers/formafantasma Hosted on Acast.

Annemieke Bosman praat met Amanda Pinatih, zij is curator Vormgeving voor het Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam waar nu de tentoonstelling Oltre Terra is te zien. Het Stedelijk presenteert de tentoonstelling Oltre Terra, een onderzoeksproject van designstudio Formafantasma over de geschiedenis, ecologie en wereldwijde impact van wolproductie. Mensen hebben de evolutie van schapen sterk beïnvloed, maar schapen hebben ook bijgedragen aan de menselijke geschiedenis. Oltre Terra brengt materialen, objecten en ambachten samen tot een multidisciplinaire kijkervaring. De Italiaanse titel van de tentoonstelling, Oltre Terra, komt voort uit de etymologie van het Engelse woord "transhumance", een term die het Latijnse trans (over, "oltre" in het Italiaans) en humus (grond, "terra" in het Italiaans) combineert. Transhumance beschrijft de seizoensgebonden beweging van vee tussen grasgebieden. Op eenzelfde manier is de tentoonstelling ontwikkeld vanuit een trans disciplinaire benadering, in samenwerking met ontwerpers, kunstenaars, antropologen, evolutiebiologen, juristen, curatoren, herders en boeren. Mensen hebben schapen gedomesticeerd, maar schapen hebben op hun beurt de menselijke geschiedenis beïnvloed door wol te leveren. Voortdurend verschuift de grens tussen de temmer en de getemde. De tentoonstelling onderzoekt de complexe relatie tussen mensen en schapen en kijkt naar de economische en ethische gevolgen van het verkrijgen van materialen van levende wezens.        

Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin are the founders of Formafantasma, a research-driven design studio based in Milan and Rotterdam that investigates the ecological, historical, political, and social forces shaping the discipline of design. In this conversation, Jarrett talks with Andrea and Simone about the role of research in their studio, moving between critical investigations and commercial commissions, and how the studio is trying to redefine the role of design today.

Over the next four episodes our Interiors experts will be bringing you key trends, insights and interviews from this year's Milan Design Week. Subscribers can find a suite of six trend analysis reports covering all the trends you need to know from this year's event, in this short series of podcasts we'll cover four of those trends.  The annual Milan Design Week is considered the world's biggest event dedicated to design which takes place at Fiera Milano exhibition centre located just outside the city, plus across the city as Fuorisalone in showrooms, palazzos and other venues. Expect to hear from innovators, disruptors and designers from Formafantasma and Danish company Gubi's chief brand officer Marie Kristine Schmidt to German designer Markus Benesch and the makers of a compostable hemp chair.  In this episode, Bethan Ryder, WGSN Executive Editorial Director is joined by Director of Interiors Lisa White and Head of Interiors Gemma Riberti to discuss our first trend, the overall sense of optimism at the festival, it's the first time in four years it returned to its April slot and the joy was palpable.

This is the third in our series of episodes in which we bring you some of the key trends, insights and interviews from Milan Design Week 2023. The annual Milan Design Week is considered the world's biggest event dedicated to design which takes place at Fiera Milano exhibition centre located just outside the city, plus across the city as Fuorisalone in showrooms, palazzos and other venues. Bethan Ryder, WGSN Executive Editorial Director is joined by Director of Interiors Lisa White and Head of Interiors Gemma Riberti as we explore our sustainability trend. In this episode we focus on an interview with Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin, co-founders of Formafantasma, the research-driven design studio who are leading the conversion on sustainability and design not just from a materials perspective but also a human one. And also catch up with Dutch designer Maarten Baas, who created a private jet of recycled denim for his collaboration with G-Star RAW.

Formafantasma is a design studio founded in 2009 by Simone Farresin and Andrea Trimarchi, with offices in Milan and in Rotterdam. Their practice is based on research, and their deep investigations into the ecological, historical, political, and social forces shaping the discipline of design today inform not only their critical and influential exhibitions and academic inquiry, but also the exquisite objects they have produced for commercial manufacturers of global renown.In this episode, Simone and Andrea discuss with Paola Antonelli their use of design as a lens to and understand the world, and their reliance on the formal elegance of objects as Trojan horses to unveil unethical practices and exploitative systems of extraction that are entangled with design and production - exposing them so they can be dismantled. Three projects in particular, supported by solid, publicly available research and culminating in exhibitions, illustrate their approach. Ore Streams (National Gallery Victoria in Melbourne, 2017, and Triennale di Milano, 2019) focused on electronic waste, while Cambio (Serpentine, London, 2020) examined the global ecology of timber. Oltre Terra, which will open in May 2023 at the National Museum in Oslo, studies the systems of extraction and production of wool, and therefore the complex relationship between animals, humans, and the environment. You'll find images of the projects Simone and Andrea describe in this interview on our Instagram feed @design.emergency. Thank you for listening! Hosted on Acast.

The last episode of From the Moon 2, turns the inquiry from all that is unknown to observe what might constitute the real world. The episode sees the participation of Francis Kéré and one half of design duo Formafantasma.

The objects designed by Formafantasma often function as tools to enter a conversation rather than being the outcome of their in-depth research processes. Looking beyond common definitions, they consider all the ecology that goes around the discipline - like infrastructures of material extraction and distribution - a design issue. In the 50th episode of the Hurra Hurra Podcast, Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin are talking with Christian Zöllner about ways to engage with “objects as world makers” within “The School of the Untold” at the Design Campus Dresden or with their students in the GEO-Design master's program at Design Academy Eindhoven.

Andrea Trimarchi e Simone Farresin si incontrano a Firenze nel 2004. Provengono da percorsi molto diversi, con un punto in comune: la passione per il design, un design etico e sostenibile. Da questo incontro nasce il duo Formafantasma, un'identità unica che modifica la forma da premessa a conseguenza. Sostenibilità, etica, ricerca dei materiali, riappropriazione del sistema produttivo, ridefinizione dello spazio umano: tutti elementi che seguono la direzione di un continuo dialogo transgenerazionale volto alla rivoluzione consapevole del mondo del design. L'Incontro di Andrea Trimarchi e Simone Farresin è a cura di Domitilla Dardi, storica del design e senior curator per il design del Museo, scritto con Francesca de Michele.

L'intervista su Caleido a Formafantasma, studio di design e ricerca fondato da Andrea Trimarchi e Simone Farresin, è la cover story della Issue #18, intitolata: Whatever it takes. Buon ascolto!

Roberto Giustini e Stefano Stagetti sono i fondatori dell'omonima galleria, nata a Roma nel 2009. Punto di riferimento per il design italiano del 20esimo secolo e per il design contemporaneo, la galleria promuove e produce edizioni limitate di designer quali i Fratelli Campana, Konstantin Grcic, Andrea Anastasio, Formafantasma, Giacomo Moor, Umberto Riva, Anton Alvarez, Luca Cippelletti e Francesco Faccin.Con il contributo della direttrice della galleria Michela Tornielli di Crestvolant, parliamo con loro delle ultime opere di Umberto Riva, di design a Roma, di rapporto con i designer e produttori, con qualche anticipazione di quello che presenteranno al Fuorisalone.

Together with Formafantasma's Simone Farresin we talk about GEO-Design, the design of the future, what design skills are increasingly important and how the two designers are trying to create awareness about true sustainable design and more importantly, bringing along solutions to businesses that can create the much-needed change in design thinking. What role does color play in this new era of design? Lastly but not least how can smell influence new design thinking?Formafantasma is a research-based design studio investigating the ecological, historical, political and social forces shaping the discipline of design today. Whether designing for a client or developing self – initiated projects, the studio applies the same rigorous attention to context, processes and details. Formafantasma's analytical nature translates in meticulous visual outcomes, products and strategies.Since founding the studio in 2009, Italians Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin have championed the need for value – laden advocacy merged with holistic design thinking. Their aim is to facilitate a deeper understanding of both our natural and built environments and to propose transformative interventions through design and its material, technical, social, and discursive possibilities.

Critical Zones | Assembly Towards Permacircular Museums [22.04.2020] The ecological footprint of art institutions can be reduced through a more responsible approach towards exhibition-making. This session will focus on sharing exhibition-making practices that follow a more sustainable way of production, thus highlighting the importance of taking responsibility for the environmental impact of institutions' own action. This section will present case studies by experts in the field who practice these approaches but will also address obstacles to the process of ecologizing art museums. The event opens a space for discussion, exchange, and sharing between professionals in the art sector, also involving learning from experience of other types of museum institutions. with Ianina Prudenko and Alexei Shulgin (co-founders of »Art Footprint Manifesto«), Graciela Melitsko Thornton (Creative Green Programme Lead, Julie's Bicycle, London), Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin (design studio Formafantasma, Amsterdam), Helen Turner and Pablo Wendel (Co-Artistic Directors, E-WERK Luckenwalde) and an activation by Benoît Verjat (research designer)

Bio Is The New  Black #6 - Entretien avec Anne-Lyse Renon, Design graphique dans les pratiques de la science

With Stefano Boeri, Ersilia Vaudo, Paola Antonelli, Formafantasma, Andrés Jaque, Legacy Russell We take stock of the planet’s environment, both natural and manmade. Can we still talk of an Anthropocene Era? What is the planet’s culture as seen from the Moon? What is culture beyond the pandemic? – From the Moon the Earth seems to be a serenely beautiful sphere of blues, greens and whirling white clouds. From the moon, is where we can finally step back and look at the state of our planet; from the extinction and destruction being caused by climate change to the interlinked conflict and crises that is effecting our population. This podcast will look at Planet Earth as if we are broadcasting from the Moon, the distance allowing us to make sense of the immense beauty that sometimes coexists, but that can often disappear when faced with such grave challenges. Seven episodes of From the Moon will try and unpack the state of the planet via different, distinct topics that interweave and complement the XXIII Triennale theme. Bringing together the fields of design, innovation, science, art, philosophy and more besides, conversations broadcast From the Moon will offer solutions and warnings, they should inspire and critique in equal measure. The 2020 pandemic is of course present in all our consciousness, and rather than addressing this as its own topic or episode it has to be taken as a subtext of the whole podcast series. Some episodes will have particular resonance when it comes to assessing the impact and consequences of the Covid-19 crisis. HOSTED BY DAVID PLAISANT – David Plaisant is a freelance journalist and writer based in Italy. He began his career in London, where he worked in architecture and design advocacy groups and then as a design writer and radio producer for multimedia brand Monocle.

Simone Farresin is the co-founder of Formafantasma, a research-based design studio that investigates the ecological, historical, political and social forces shaping the discipline of design today. In our conversation, we discuss the studio’s trajectory across over a decade since its inception. We dive into the three aspects of the studio – its research work, commercial projects and work in the field of education, heading up the Geo-Design department at Design Academy Eindhoven. We also discuss the challenges and opportunities around long-term sustainable approach to design.   Mentioned in the episode: - Formafantasma's new website - Geo-Design at Design Academy Eindhoven - Cambio exhibition - Ore Streams   This episode was presented by Justyna Green.

Od počátku vnímali design jako nástroj, kterým mohou komentovat společenská dění, sociální problémy, příběhy či přírodní a historické fenomény, podstatu materiálů a propůjčovat tak předmětům zcela nové funkce a významy.

“Committed, passionate, ingenious, resourceful, elegant and utterly uncompromising, Enzo Mari is one of the most fascinating designers of our time.” Design critic and writer Alice Rawsthorn collaborates with Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator of the Triennale Milano’s Enzo Mari retrospective, on Enzo Mari Costellazione: a podcast in which Mari’s friends and collaborators share their memories and observations of the designer. Architect Stefano Boeri describes him as “a constellation”. Curator Paola Antonelli sees him as “the conscience of Italian design”. While designer Martino Gamper remembers Enzo Mari as having “insulted me in a way that I’ve never been insulted by another designer.” Marva Griffin Wilshire, founder and creator of Salone Satelline, defines him as “an outsider” whilst design duo Formafantasma unfolds the influence Enzo Mari had on their work about the “implication of production” in design processes. As Hans Ulrich Obrist discusses with Alice Rawsthorn: “the exhibition is an exhibition about the many Maris”.

“Committed, passionate, ingenious, resourceful, elegant and utterly uncompromising, Enzo Mari is one of the most fascinating designers of our time.” Design duo Formafantasma explains the influence Enzo Mari had on their ongoing research about the “implication of production” in design processes.

What does design look like when it begins from a position of ecological responsibility? What does designing with and for the non-human mean? Host Victoria Sin is joined by Rebecca Lewin, Curator of Exhibitions and Design, together they dive into everything from eco-design led exhibition making, to asking questions about the future of design education and ecological practices. Lewin is joined by Formafantasma, Dunne & Raby and sound works from Black Quantum Futurism.   Formafantasma talk about their exhibition at the Serpentine Galleries, Cambio, and the ways in which the project will be intertwined with the Masters course they are initiating at the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2020.    Dunne & Raby explore about their relationship to speculative design, the importance of teaching in their practice as designers and the role of museums to communicate radical design thinking.    Black Quantum Futurism's sound work Temporal Technologies is part of a series seeking strategies for survival for marginalised peoples in a "high-tech" and oppressive, linear space-time.   Image: Formafantasma, still from Quercus, 2020, Video, colour, sound, courtesy of Formafantasma.

Episode Summary: In this episode we meet designers Andrea and Simone from Studio Formafantasma, who share with us their vision on regenerating design through continuing the discipline by integrating more intelligent contemporary interventions, while taking a step back towards nature. In the current context of the pandemic, two of their exhibitions, 'Cambio' in Serpentine Galleries and Rijksmuseum's 'Baroque in Rome', are closed to the public; they tell us about their unforeseen challenges in a time of prolific changes and their thoughts on the enhanced opportunities in the digital dimension. The duo discusses the importance of slowing down, incorporating sustainability into the design process and their optimistic beliefs in a more collaborative future.The Speakers: Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin, known as Studio Formafantasma, are an Italian creative duo based in Amsterdam. They are revolutionaries in the design field, having a multidisciplinary research-based practice, acting as a bridge between craft, industry, object and user. Through their path of exploration, their work has been presented internationally in museums such as New York's Museum of Modern Art and in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, London's Serpentine Galleries, Victoria & Albert museum; Centre Pompidou in Paris, and many others. Whether designing for a client or investigating alternative applications of materials, Studio Formafantasma apply the same rigorous attention to context, process and detail to every project they undertake. The added nuance for the duo is that they do so with an eye to the historical, political and social forces that have shaped their environments. Esteemed design critics listed their studio amongst a handful of practices that would shape the future of design.Hosts: Elizabeth Zhivkova and Farah PiriyeSign up for ZEITGEIST19's newsletter at https://www.zeitgeist19.comFor sponsorship enquiries, comments, ideas and collaborations, email us at info@zeitgeist19.com

Formfantasma takes a closer look at charcoal, it's ancient uses, the good and bad properties of the material. For this they created a number of experiments in the confrontations series together with charcoal burner Doris Wicki, one of the last artisans who still produce vegetable charcoal through slow combustion of wood. This project is part of the confrontations series held in the Vitra Design museum.

The organic reference is explicit on the light designed by Studio Formafantasma which looks as if a traditional bulb has been stopped in the process of transforming into a leaf. Unusually asymmetrical the light is meant to be use as a single piece or as a flock of glowing leafs. With the limited edition the organic world is not anymore only a formal reference. As a continuation of the previous work of the studio ‘Botanica’, the vessel of the bulb is produced with a 19th century material re-developed by Formafantasma composed by a polymer extracted from insect excrement that colonize trees mixed with wood powder. more info on booo.nl video by designguide.tv music: "Night Owl" by Broke For Free (brokeforfree.com/)

Formafantasma was recently commissioned by Plart, to create their own interpretation of the polymeric materials. As many of our daily objects come from oil/plastic they will remain relevant as we move forward to alternatives. Andrea and Simone take a closer look into the history of polymers which goes back centuries in the forms of resins and other methods of preserving. Botanica is the resulting project, the objects displayed in the collection are designed as if the oil- based era, in which we are living, never took place. The designers researched and hunted for information, digging into the 18th and 19th centuries, when scientists began experimenting draining plants and animals in search for plasticity. With botanica, studio formafantasma offers a new perspective on plasticity, reinterpreting centuries old technology lost in mass production of oil derivatives. more information on www.formafantasma.com

Simone & Andrea took inspiration in the history of a small city in Sicily, Caltagirone. The little town, famous for its ceramics and local tradition, has over 300 craftsmen working in the city. As an iconic base and as inspiration they used one of the most famous traditional Sicilian artworks "Teste id moro" referring to the vases which show the face of a native African. The once conquering Moors returned several centuries later as immigrants, leaving behind an ever changing mix of traditions and materials to be absorbed as culture. The duo rethought the iconic vase and added their own design touch during their Masters at the Design Academy Eindhoven. The distant worlds of artifacts and illegal immigration began to blur together revealing unusual correlations. This resulted in several objects in the "Moulding Tradition" collection. video by designguide.tv interview by Matylda Krzykowski (matandme.net) more information can be found on www.formafantasma.com
