APPLICATION OF ECO-CONCEPTS IN PRINT DECORATING OF MODERN DESIGN PRODUCTS

Abstract

The study of application of decorative patterns and relevant modern prints in fashion products, as well as the possibilities of creating trending patterns and designer fabrics in the laboratories of designers and scientists as the beginning of new trends in the collaboration of basic science and creativity. The use of natural materials, produced by encapsulating living biological cells in an inanimate matrix, which guarantees their mechanical durability and the ability to produce various spatial patterns, is studied and presented. Base of the study is a systematic approach, analysis of scientific, technical and regulatory information, methods of literary and analytical, systemic and structural, comparative analysis, as well as the historical method. Results lie in revealing the scope for designing harmonious relationships in a modern environmentally oriented design concept with the use of decor using bio-hybrid structures of living materials. Analytical studies of scientific breakthroughs and the study of the particular processes of using living materials to create modern 3D prints in garment decoration and other author's design projects allow us to develop new trends in eco-concepts in the collaboration of scientists and the work of modern designers, which will contribute to the sustainable development of societal cultural messages. The research proves that in-depth study of the application of new eco-technologies enables the possibility of functional living materials to be used in potential end-uses, including smart tissues, devices, biosensors, or fermentation bioreactors. It is emphasized that individual living materials from nano- to macroscale can be printed on a high-resolution 3D printer in the form of spatially defined patterns. The possibility of developing materials and patterns simulating sophisticated architecture, spatial layout and time-varying nature of living cells by means of modern theoretical and applied research on intelligent eco-technologies and materials by bioprinting methods is introduced. The research and study of the microalgae growth process contributes to further development of the theoretical framework and provides researchers with the opportunity to prove that living materials of decorative prints may be 3D printed by applying living bioprint cells to a non-living matrix-substrate in layers. The processes investigated here may be regarded as a means of implementing modern eco-concepts in decorating various original design products with prints.
