MAGNO

Harvard Graduate School of Design + Harvard Innovation Labs

In collaboration with Saurabh Mhatre & Olga Mesa

 

Magno is a research project exploring applications of magnets in design. Magnet is a material that allows us to manipulate objects without getting in contact with them. Collection of magnets also have the ability to display self-assembly and swamp behaviors.  These characteristics were used to create a series of products: Magno field, Magno Fabric, Magno Tape and Magno Hinge.
