What we do
Alter is a research-based project by a creative Studio Ore. We are investigating the food, ecological, technology shaping the discipline of design. Our analytical nature translates in meticulous visual outcomes, products and strategies.
Company's story
Our Specialty
At Alter, which aims to use food as a whole to create a new circular economy (Food Waste Design drives new circular economy), we value a fun and creative approach to our projects.
Through a process of research, service design, experimentation, and prototyping, we propose new ways of thinking about and using food that will be necessary in the future.
Food Upcycling
Recover and upcycle vegetables and fruits that are out of standard and are disposed of before they reach the market, as well as inedible peels and seeds. By turning recovered food into powder, we extend the shelf life of foodstuffs and use them in areas other than food.
Original material design
Based on materials available in the kitchen, we develop and design materials that are 100% plant-based and utilize the flavors and colors of the ingredients. We develop and research optimal bioplastic recipes by blending materials according to your needs and applications.
Design and Collaboration
We design and deliver products and experiences through approaches such as web, illustration, video, and 3D printing. We will implement efficient approaches by employing digital fabrication.
