This novel material system emphasizes ecological responsibility, regional sourcing, and fire safety while interfacing with contemporary and digital design languages.By employing 3D printing technology, the material is turned into meticulously defined geometric shapes. This technique represents a significant advancement in sustainable design, preserving the wood's inherent CO2 absorption capacity and broadening its functional and aesthetic possibilities.A key advantage of Econit Wood technology lies in its zero-waste philosophy. In contrast to conventional manufacturing, which often leads to significant material wastage, this approach ensures the effective use of every particle of raw material without waste generation.Econit Wood elements are made-to-order, eliminating unnecessary inventory and minimizing the environmental footprint often associated with mass production. This crafting process is a synthesis of freedom and precision, enabling the creation of intricate designs that would be hard to achieve with traditional woodworking methods.Harry Thaler is a designer whose work reinterprets fundamental design typologies by combining high quality and traditional craftsmanship with innovative shapes and materials. Trained as a goldsmith, whose background strongly influences his design process, he earned his MA in Design Products from the Royal College of Art (2010). In the same year, Thaler opened his studio in London and developed the Pressed Chair, which immediately became very well known. Thaler works with international companies such as Nils Holger Moormann, Pulpo, Davide Groppi, Monocle, Leaos, and Olev Light. His field of activity also includes the design of indoor and outdoor spaces as well as projects in the field of architecture. His work has been exhibited internationally and has been awarded numerous prizes. Harry Thaler now lives in Merano (Italy), where he converted a disused silo tower into his studio. From 2016 to 2019, Thaler was part of the Faculty of Design and Arts at the Free University of Bolzano.
