Hybrid Fabrication
Hybrid Fabrication in material development means combining two or more making methods to create new materials with special qualities. For example, a designer might use both 3D printing and hand weaving in one project, leading to materials that have both the strength of printed parts and the flexibility of woven fibers. This approach helps designers make materials that can change shape, react to touch, or have different textures in one piece. Hybrid Fabrication can let designers work with recycled or natural materials mixed with high-tech ones, making it easier to create eco-friendly products with new looks and uses.
