Biodesign goes further than other biology-inspired approaches to design and fabrication. Unlike biomimicry, cradle to cradle, and the popular but frustratingly vague ‘green design,’ Our design goals is to incorporates living organisms into the design as building blocks, material sources, energy generators, digital storage systems and air purifiers, just to name a few possibilities.
BioDesign is both opportunistic and logical in recognizing the tremendous power and potential utility of organisms and their natural interaction with larger and ever-changing ecosystems around them.
Symbiosis lodge is an innovative design that merges architecture, biology, and engineering. The result is a new sense of materiality, new hybrid biotechnologies and unprecedented living forms that are redefining not only building design, but our whole built environment.
