Living Interface

Living Interface

Living Interface is a design concept where living organisms, like plants or bacteria, are used as active parts of interactive systems. In the context of Bio Interaction, designers can use living materials that respond to touch, light, or environmental changes, creating real-time feedback. For example, some designers use bio-luminescent algae that glow when touched, turning a surface into a living display. These interfaces can sense and react to human presence or actions, making the interaction feel alive. Living Interfaces often use sensors to monitor the health and activity of the organisms, helping designers create experiences that change and grow over time. This approach gives designers new ways to make products and spaces that feel dynamic and connected to nature.
