Horn - A sustainable material for the future

Abstract
Cow horn has been a craftig material in Europe for
1000s of years. Yet, in the last 100 years the material
has disappeard from our pool of commonly used
materials.

Today it is mostly used for dogfood and gelatine.

I believe that horn could again become a commonly
used crafting material, especially for modern and
sustainable products.

Among my many visions for horn, I see it as a beautiful,
natural material that could be used instead of
plastic.

In this project im setting out to explore the propertis,
advantages and disadvantages of cow horn
and how to use it for contemporary products in
modern production.
