Ecosystem Sampler (Sporal Properties)

einaidea takes part in Milan's Design Week with the exhibition Ecosystem Sampler (Sporal Properties) in the framework of We Will Design 2025: Making Kin, from 7 to 13 April at BASE Milano.  

Presented as a spatial mixtape or a curatorial design mashup, Ecosystem Sampler (Sporal Properties) offers an itinerary of recent projects and prototypes around critical sustainability and post-traumatic imaginaries emerging from einaidea's ecosystem. Featuring a selection of notable projects stemming from Eina's study programs and spinoffs —from the Bachelor of Design to the MURAD and MUDE masters programs, as well as from initiatives ignited by eina obra and einaidea— the exhibition takes place as an unapologetical display of tools for an epoch of disfunction and recalibration, disorientation and instinctive survival poetics.

The included projects navigate the speculative-performative design axis, inviting collaborations from the unexpected and the animal, and calling upon microbial, mineral, ancestral and residual co-actants. Thus our display works as a gathering of fungi-driven graphic templates, rewilding scripts, damaged craft, infrastructural remediation, mutating popular lore, and reverse functionalism, where every piece seeks to attain the contaminating qualities of a single spore.

The exhibition is curated by Manuel Cirauqui x einaidea and it includes works by Ignasi Ayats, Flavià Boleda, Martí Crisol Rodríguez, Ana Habash, Roger Monfort and Júlia López, Tornen les esquelles, Anna Vega and Leonela Vannesa Zapata Chaucca.
