What could mycelium materials be used for…?

…the potential applications are countless and here at the studio we’re constantly exploring a wide variety of those…

…as, for instance, utilising pure fungal materials as alternative to animal leather, traditionally implemented in book-making.

The Mycelium Books, part of “The Growing Lab - Mycelia” collection, are an ongoing exploration carried out by Officina Corpuscoli in close collaboration with  MAZZOTTI BOOKS/London, an independent bookbinding and letterpress studio.
