Mushroom baked goods? Not exactly and definitely not for eating! These trays of mushrooms are part of a controlled test conducted by Kyle Zimmerman of 123 West Design Collective in an effort to create sustainable building materials for local housing. Kyle is a creative wizard in the field of sustainability and even uses a vintage trailer as his office. Part of the trailer to office transformation has turned the bathroom into a air temperature controlled mushroom spore cultivation laboratory where Kyle has been nerding out🤓 The idea is that these mushroom trays can be building blocks. He will have them laboratory tested for installation density, heat retention, and long-term quality for home construction. Kyle works closely with CRTC and i am excited to see how this test project progresses in the future.
