Rethinking Plastic Challenge – Polina Baikina

By 21-12-2021

As part of the Rethinking Plastic programme, Yksi Expo – together with the Stokroos Foundation – has developed assignments for five young designers from the Yksi Expo Young Talent team. As an incentive to take them a step further in their development and career. Today we present Polina Baikina.

Krapiva Zhguchaya edition II
Polina Baikina (Studio laVina) previously designed various nettle products and objects in collaboration with Varvara Lazareva. As a follow-up, she focuses on sustainability and circularity. The stem of the nettle is rich in cellulose and offers a wide range of applications in combination with bioplastic. With TNO’s new Torwash technology, these materials can be separated and recycled into original raw materials for reuse.
