About Basque BioDesign Center

About the Basque Design Center BDC is a center focused on the development of new technologies and disciplines applied to the circular economy, through the research of regenerative practices. Biodesign strategies, inspired by nature and biological organisms, will be explored as a driver of innovation, driving the transition to a more holistic and sustainable future. The aim of this initiative is to improve the competitiveness of local businesses and the consolidation of the large area of sustainable rural development in Gueñes. This new center will give way to the knowledge and application of sustainable design through activities such as masterclasses, workshops, mentoring and support for entrepreneurship initiatives. The students, start-ups and entrepreneurs that form part of this community will be pioneers in the emerging discipline of biodesign, proposing solutions to contemporary challenges such as climate change, low-consumption manufacturing, natural resource depletion, human and environmental health. With advanced resources such as the Material Library, the Bio Lab and the FabLab, the BDC will introduce professional designers and those in training to multidisciplinary thinking, the principles of biomimicry, bio-computational design, digital and bio-manufacturing techniques. It will be a "laboratory" for development and research applied to the design of new materials, textiles, products and furniture, services, systems and sustainable and regenerative architectural proposals.
