Elodie and Rebecca carry out research and experimentation on the valorization of scraps and waste from industrial and craft production. This research in design around the recovered and crushed material, allows them to achieve a more specific work of manifest installations. In October 2019 they are selected at the MADE (Material Designers) an international competition of material design. where they explore the creation of innovative biodegradable materials made from shellfish farming waste.

This international experience now allows them to pass on the practice of Design Materials and presents their project Precious Kitchen in the fall of 2020 (Winner of the call for Digital Creativity Project 2019 in the Centre region). This exchange platform, in which art and design integrate the field of the circular economy, facilitates the pooling of resources available on the territory. The open-source online version offers recipes for materials made from the waste of the companies in the project partner region. Its offline version is expressed in the form of workshops and master classes: Precious Kitchen sets up research and creation times to test materials, share and transmit the new techniques generated.
