Overview

FOR Design Studio is an ethical prototyping an design shop in Timișoara creating objects infused by purpose, soul, longevity and ethical materials. Inspired by their strive to bring clay and innovation together - this cup is 3D printed with CLAY! Combining that with our collection of wildlife tracks in plaster, we created a clay coffee mug embossed with the real tracks casts in actual size. We made this edition just in time for Christmas. Through this venture we aim to bring together local trackers who are already recording wildlife tracks as proof of life, with designers and product that this wildlife's stories further into people's homes and day to day life. The vision for this collection is to pay tribute to the wildlife that surrounds us. Our hope: With every sip of coffee out of this cup you get grounded in nature. The colour and clay representing the soil- invite you to take a deep breath and connect to the earth. The track underneath representing the wild. Inviting you to tap into your inner wild. You have two options - you can purchase the mug or make a donation via this link or via paypal. You would need to donate at least 30 Euros to get a cup as a thank you. If the donation option does not make sense to you - you can also purchase regularly here.

Tracking team

Tracking team

The Art of Tracking may well be the origin of science. Our local and global team are part of this ancient guild and practice here, the Cybertracker international standard. After hundreds of thousands of years, traditional tracking skills may soon be lost. Yet tracking can be developed into a new science with far-reaching implications for indigenous communities, citizen science and nature conservation.
