Material Libraries

What is your stuff made out of? When we look at the products
around us - consumer electronics, furniture, food containers -
it's always that same fifteen materials. It's plastics. Glass.
Aluminum. Wood.


At Nonfiction, we insist on getting more creative with materials.
One of the ways we do that is by accessing a material library.
Our headquarters hosts a world-class material library created by
Material ConneXion, a New York City based material science
company that gathers a lot of materials - and most importantly
sustainable materials - from all over the world.





Our office features hundreds of materials that you can touch,
smell, bend, and read about. Learn about why we have a material
library, and how we use it in this latest episode of Future
Future hosted by Phnam Bagley and Mardis Bagley.
