The Wild Future Lab<\/strong> is a speculative design and material exploration project imagining what sustainable fashion might look like in Nairobi in the year 2047. Through hands-on experimentation with natural fibers, upcycled materials, open source equipment designs and traditional techniques, the lab brought together artists, scientists and designers to question extractive norms and imagine a rewilded, locally produced future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013\u2013\u2013\u2013
We Will Design 2026: HELLO, DARKNESS<\/strong> embraces design as a tool for subverting hierarchies and weaving together ecologies and technologies to imagine the cities and societies of the future.
It is an invitation to recognize the abyss \u2014 political, ecological, aesthetic \u2014 we’re living in, not as a place of fear, but as a space of regeneration, resistance, and imagination. Darkness here is not absence, but a fertile condition that embraces invisible gestures, marginalized knowledge, and luminous forms of resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join Us In The Dark.
From 20th to 26th April.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
