Invasive Matters PBC

Designer & Researcher: Ashlí Marino Watson

Materials: Bio-material

Methods: Bio-material innovation and experimental fabrication


INVASIVE MATTERS pbc is advancing a climate-adaptive, circular manufacturing model by transforming invasive plant biomass into high-performance, non-toxic bio-materials for design and construction. The initiative integrates rigorous ecological protocols for invasive species removal with regenerative native-planting restoration to simultaneously mitigate invasive species impacts and strengthen ecosystem resilience. By diverting biomass waste streams and reducing reliance on extractive, carbon-intensive materials, Invasive Matters establishes a scalable pathway for sustainable industrial design rooted in ecological health and long-term environmental stewardship.

Scope
Research and development of non-toxic, bio-based building units through material experimentation, prototyping, and bio-composite fabrication.
