What makes a colour environmentally responsible? The latest addition to BE OPEN Academy’s Bookshelf, BioColours: Sustainable Stories from Nature, Lab and Industry, edited by Kirsi Niinimäki and Julia Lohmann, brings together scientific research, dyeing practices and design experiments. The collection examines how colours connect materials, landscapes and production systems, encouraging readers to question environmental claims through attention to safety, durability and processing requirements.
