As a brand founded by a female designer, collaborating and connecting with other designers at every production stage is non-negotiable. Our focus is creating materials that can truly take the heat – and look great doing it. At Melina Bucher's master craftsmanship manufactuary in Mannheim, we let artisans play with new perforations and textures. By partnering with innovators specializing in high-fashion, next-gen, and vegan materials, we get that vital feedback to sculpt the future of NUVI. #NUVIInnovation #SustainableLuxury #DesignProcess #NUVI #SustainableLuxury, #NextGenMaterials #BioBased #MelinaBucher #Vegan

Thank you Healthy Materials Lab at Parsons School of Design for carefully assessing this year's Future Fabrics Expo by The Sustainable Angle. We love hearing your fresh perspective on biomaterials. We can't wait to see PAPILIO in the hands of young designers!
🌿 Exploring the Future of Fabrics ✨ This year’s Future Fabrics Expo by The Sustainable Angle brought together a collection of over 5,000+ certified responsibly produced materials - showcasing innovation at the intersection of design, health, and sustainability. At the expo, HML researcher Jessica Thies explored the latest advancements, collecting textile samples and engaging with manufacturers for the Donghia 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘦𝘳 Materials Library at Parsons School of Design - The New School. This hands-on research helps us continually expand our collection of safer, more sustainable material options. Highlights that inspired us: ✨ Decomposition Library by Notgroundbreaking: A compelling exploration of how textiles and biomaterials break down into compost. It’s a visual reminder of the importance of designing for the full lifecycle of textiles in this case for decomposition and prioritizing soil health. ✨ Sparxell: A stunning plant-based pigment that mimics the structural colors of butterfly wings using cellulose from sustainably managed forests. This non-toxic, plastic-free material offers a more sustainable approach to finishes and coloration. ✨ ELEVATE by UNCAGED Innovations: A scalable leather alternative crafted from grain byproducts, plant polymers, and natural ingredients. Seeing this material evolve from prototype to production highlights the rapid advancements in biobased innovations. We’re eager to run these new materials through our rigorous evaluation process, which addresses energy use, chemical impacts, carbon emissions, and toxicity. The Future Fabrics Expo took place on November 19th and 20th at the Metropolitan Pavilion in NYC. We’re excited by these innovative textiles. Which material innovation excites you the most? Let us know! 🌱 * New innovations are often made of proprietary ingredients, we aim to support innovations which target 100% biobased content and eliminate petrochemical processes.

Future Fabrics Exp FFE in New York provided a unique space for exploration and connection, bringing together brands and designers searching for sustainable solutions. From fossil-free buttons to bio-based textiles, the brands we shared space within the Innovation Hub showcased exciting possibilities. We took this trip to New York to introduce the world to our newest lab-scale material PAPILIO. Its story—rooted in nature and transformation—is one of evolving possibilities. There's more in store and coming soon! Check our website for more details. Thanks to @TheSustainableAngle for having us! #ArtfulAlchemy #NatureInspired #BioInnovation #ButterflyPea #PlantPowered #EcoMaterials #NUVI #CircularDesign #InnovateWithNature #PapilioMaterial #BioBased

PAPILIO is our latest lab innovation, created from the butterfly pea flower. Known across Asia for its vivid blue, this flower naturally colors food, drinks, and hair. A simple squeeze of lime transforms its shade from blue to violet, echoing the metamorphosis of a butterfly. 🦋 Nature transforms and inspires at every stage of its lifecycle. Rooted in plant-powered science, PAPILIO lets nature take the lead. #ArtfulAlchemy #NatureInspired #BioInnovation #ButterflyPea #PlantPowered #EcoMaterials #NUVI #CircularDesign #InnovateWithNature #PapilioMaterial #BioBased

Introducing PAPILIO --------------------------------- For years, we’ve looked to nature for inspiration. Now, we’re moving past imitation and allowing plants and minerals to take center stage. Inspired by the vibrant beauty of blue butterfly pea flowers, the PAPILIO collection reflects years of growth and evolution in our bio-material process. It's still 100% plastic-free, bio-based, and designed for circularity. But it's beyond mimicking synthetics or animal-based materials—and instead celebrates what plants and minerals can achieve. If you are in NYC at The Sustainable Angle Future Fashion Expo we encourage you to check PAPILIO out in person. For those who can’t make it, visit our website for more updates and to see how our current work with PAPILIO is transforming tradition. #NUVI #PAPILIO #NextGenMaterials #BioBasedInnovation #SustainableDesign #CircularEconomy #FutureOfFashion

Christophe Cappon's journey to co-founding NUVI started with a deep-rooted belief in ahimsa—nonviolence and respect for all living things. As a dedicated yogi and creator of Thai Yoga Holidays, he spent years designing wellness retreats focused on mindfulness and balance. During this time in Thailand, he teamed up with co-founder Nina to explore sustainable alternatives to leather, using our first-gen teak leaves to create yoga straps and bags with NUVI NOMAD. From a yogic approach to mindful design, Christophe’s vision continues to shape NUVI’s commitment to creating materials that honors our home and all beings who share it. #NUVI #NextgenMaterials #AhimsaInDesign #EcoInnovation #MindfulDesign #YogaInspiration

At NUVI, our materials are rooted in the same values we live by as creatives—and, for Co-Founder Christophe, that includes the guiding principles of yoga. Flexibility, ease, and stability aren’t just qualities of great materials; they’re core to how we operate, create, and grow. One of the guiding principles we hold close is Saucha (Purity). It’s all about keeping our body, mind, and environment as clear as possible. This means developing materials with purpose and seeking purity in every part of the process. We aim to craft products that support a cleaner, more balanced future for both the people who use them and the planet that supports their production and eventual return. Great design flows from great values, don't you agree? #NUVI #NextGenMaterials #Biobased #biomaterial #ValueDrivenDesign #Flexibility #Focus #YogaInspiration #Saucha
