Sustainable Materials Library - Wise Habit

Sustainable Materials Library - Wise Habit

Wise Habit is hosting the first Sustainable Materials Library in Poland and the third in Europe. Its goal is to support designers and architects in creating products and spaces that are planet-friendly. With a broad portfolio of regenerative and sustainable materials, the library serves as an indispensable resource for the conscious architect.

As Karolina Ferenc, Head of Research at Wise Habit and curator of the Library, explains: "We started with the assumption that everything begins with design, meaning with the designer – whether it's a house, a chair, a phone case, or a bottle. That’s why designers are the driving force behind the shift toward sustainable and planet-friendly production of goods." Wise Habit is a concept that includes showroom brands and a strategic design agency, all united by shared values: design, sustainability, and awareness.

Holistic Approach to Materials

The materials industry is evolving rapidly, and acquiring high-quality materials often involves a time-consuming research process. The Sustainable Materials Library simplifies this process by providing access to:

• Environmental data of materials, including certificates and declarations

• Technical specifications, instructions, and price lists

• High-quality samples from trusted and reliable sources

The library offers alternatives to traditional materials used in architecture, products, packaging, and fashion. The collection includes materials that consider factors such as origin, life cycle, biodegradability, recycling potential, and design applications. This allows designers to integrate more sustainable solutions into their projects. The library is a place where architects can explore new design possibilities, collaborate with innovative suppliers, and implement sustainable solutions. It is an investment in the future that supports both creativity and the well-being of people and the planet.

Exhibition: "Sustainable Home – Materials and Solutions"

The future of design embedded in the structure of the home. A three-dimensional model transforms into a map of innovative materials from the Sustainable Materials Library – regenerative, biodegradable, and circular. Every surface is a conscious choice, and every combination opens up new design possibilities. Complementing the experience are large-scale samples and technical specifications that inspire further exploration of these solutions’ potential for architecture and construction.
