Armstrong breaks the wall of Obligate Resource Consumption by pioneering materials as regenerative systems in nature's cycles. Merging medicine, biology, and design, she leads EU projects (Mi-Hy, Living Architecture) incorporating microbes into buildings for circular economies. Venice & Milan installations explore life's creativity. An EAM Fellow & EIC Ambassador, her work from protocells to microbial homes reveals life as original regenerative tech turning waste to resource.
