ŁEILÚ PROJECTS

By integrating living systems into art and industrial design, Łeilú Projects, the biodesign practice of Kirby Shoote and Grace Millard, hopes to find harmonious ways of creating and collaborating with nature.

WORMWORLD

Detroit’s high supply of mulberry trees makes raising silkworms an ideal addition to the urban farm. Producing hyperlocal fibers can be used in art or textiles; pupa and eggs can be sold for education or food; the worms’ waste can even be composted.

MUSHROOM OVERLORDS

Mushroom experiments range from cooking to medicine to growing our own lampshades and mushroom textiles.
