By now, Milan Design Week is surely akin to visiting an old friend for the School of Industrial design (provided a school itself could be sentient, of course). For the students packing up their work and taking it abroad, it can be a little different. In this article, Industrial Design student Ann-Cathrin Hoppe shares her experience. As a first-year Master's student, the Milan Design Week 2026 was

Bling is associated with expensive, ostentatious accessories and “bad taste”. This contrasts with the prevailing aesthetic values of the design world. But what happens when bling and design are brought together? A new thesis in industrial design from the Faculty of Engineering (LTH), Lund University in Sweden, shows that provocations – such as breaking convention with the help of the bling subcult

Davide Schirone, a researcher at the Division of Physical Chemistry, is interested in how vegan proteins work. He recently completed a study on how pea proteins are broken down in the body. Schirone and his international research team conducted the experiments at MAX IV in Lund. Why is it important to study the breakdown of vegan proteins in the stomach?“The way we produce food today in wealthy co

Minor changes in moisture level can promote lipid molecules to reorganise themselves in biomaterial or biomembranes. This can affect how the skin, lungs and tear film protect us from dehydration. This mechanism was studied in a paper by Nikol Labecka, Emma Sparr and co-workers recently published in PNAS.  Read the article about how lipid molecules reorganise drying interfacesLink to the article in

What keeps spaghetti from disintegrating in boiling water? The answer, according to new research, is gluten. The amount of salt in the water also has an unexpected significance.Using advanced techniques, researchers examined the internal structure of regular and gluten-free spaghetti – straight off the shelf. The results show that gluten has a crucial role in protecting the structure of pasta duri
