As incurably curious thinkers and makers, we are constantly experimenting with new technologies, ideas and methodologies.

From the poetic and inspiring, to the educational and empowering – we explore different ways of translating our unique insights into tangible research projects and prototypes.

Artificial Intelligence

Nvidia x PCH Research Partnership

NVIDIA’s Instant NeRF technology has the power to speed up extended reality (XR) production pipelines by replacing manual digital design processes with an autonomous AI neural network to create 3D renders.

Through our research collaboration with NVIDIA, we were able to apply Instant NeRF to scan and recreate real-world representations of our projects, for exploration via immersive desktop applications or AR/VR/MR headsets.

CISUTAC: Working together to advance textile circularity.

In their strategy for sustainable and circular textiles, the EU's 2030 vision sees all textile products on the EU market being repairable and recyclable, while also making re-use and repair services more accessible.
The Circular and Sustainable Textile and Clothing (CISUTAC) consortium came together to bring this vision to life. As a proud member of this project, we are designing and building semi-automated stations to enable more effective textile repair and disassembly.

Changing Matter

A ‘whole innovation’ catalog, Changing Matter is our contemporary homage to the Whole Earth Catalog. We collated the research, insights, ideas and ideals that drove our own journey towards becoming a more regenerative engineering studio into a non-linear encyclopedia.
