المواد المتاحة

Explanation:
Bricolage is an originally French word meaning: an object that is made or assembled with whatever materials are available. You may also find it in Italian and Spanish meaning: the do-it-yourself process or the material used in it. The context you added in your example highly supports the choice I made of the translation. Good luck.

الابتكار الفني اليدوي والاستغلال الذكي للمواد

Explanation:
Bricolage
Making artful use of what’s at hand, a bricoleur is adept at performing a large number of diverse tasks. Whether by choice or necessity - resources are drawn from the contingent remains of previous constructions and destructions.° A practical antidote to waste, bricolage engenders intellectual appreciation and social engagement with what would otherwise be discarded. A theory and practice that regards and employs “waste” as the resource it is. A human ecological adaptation to the industrial age.
