Aims and activities of the organisation: BY THE END OF MAY is a research and design studio exploring the future of manufacturing at the intersection of digital fabrication, traditional crafts and biomaterial design, to enable circular, locally productive and self-sustaining cities.
We research, design, and prototype new ways of "making things", taking advantage of what we already have inside our cities—natural resources, industrial by-products and urban waste—while enabling local makers and artisans to become the fundamental key players of a new distributed manufacturing system. We do so by developing speculative projects for companies and public institutions aimed at challenging their way of working and inspiring them to become planet-centred, local-based and self-sustaining.
If you are into open source design, distributed manufacturing, local making and regenerative materials, we would definitely like to team up!
