We first encountered Jenny Sabin's work at this year's Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial, Beauty, and were instantly inspired by her inter-disciplinary, experimental approach to architecture. Combining architecture with theories from biology and mathematics, she's hit her stride making installations with high-tech, high-performance composite fabrics. In this conversation with Cooper Hewitt curator Ellen Lupton, Sabin will discuss her work and process.

Opening this week inside the historic Kraftwerk Berlin, this year's DMY Berlin Design Expo will turn the former industrial power plant into a wide-ranging investigation of the current state of design. Under the festival's theme of "Odyssey," particular attention will be paid to designers who are blurring the lines between distinct disciplines, investigating how design will become a bridge to our future.
