Hyundai Motor Group (the Group) and Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) are pleased to continue their pioneering multiyear research partnership exploring the relationship between nature, art and design, and the future of mobility. This year’s theme, “Motion Rewild,” investigates adaptation in uncontrolled environments and using energy the way nature does, exploring motion across extreme environments.
Now in its seventh year, the unique partnership promotes innovative ways of seeing and making through a range of approaches. The collaboration brings together RISD faculty and staff members, student researchers, and designers from Hyundai, Genesis, and Kia working together to study biomimicry and biodesign as a pathway toward developing innovative materials, products, manufacturing methods, services, and experiences. The Regeneration Studio, led by an advanced scientific team in RISD’s Edna W. Lawrence Nature Lab together with studio faculty and experts from across RISD’s networks, brings to life new concepts in bio-innovation, decoding natural environments, systems, processes, and organisms and applying nature’s principles to designs that are more circular and less harmful to the planet.
