Elisava Food Design Lab Headquarters of the Elisava Food Design Lab en Passatge de la Pau, 12, Barcelona.

Food Design Lab

As promoted at policy level, sustainable, healthy and inclusive food systems rely on systemic, cross-sectoral and participatory, multi-actor approaches. Food Design is the transdisciplinary field enabling sociocultural, economic, environmental and even political systemic transformations addressing nutrition and health – including food safety, climate and environmental sustainability, circularity and resource efficiency, and innovation and empowering communities.

Leader: Mariana Eidler, PhD

Projects

Key innovations, technology transfer and entrepreneurship projects work towards agroecology, food services and food systems designs for societal awareness, more humanised experiences in gastronomy, food processing and packaging, and the use of data and educational supports to promote healthier and environmentally friendly food-related behaviours.

Elisava Food Design Lab has materials provided by the collaborating company CATA Electrodomésticos, a pioneer in the manufacture of extractors and other household appliances, who have established synergies with the project through the development of technology and integrating their R+D with the new applications of knowledge in the field of Food Design.
