Mycelium chair
Basically it's living mycelium used as material, once printed the mycelium still grows, reinforcing the part.
It's also possible to use some sort of plastic coating (PLA?) so the fungi can only grow inside.

Cool, afaict but printed with straw with mycellium spores somehow. Not very particular in how?
And art aside, if it is actually made strong enough for use by the fungus, we'd prefer if it didnt grow its shrooms
