Level
Second Level of Biomimicry. The architect has incorporated the behavioral aspect of a termite mound
Sustainability The building is inspired by the ventilation system of termite mounds to provide a building in Zimbabwe's dry and hot climate without the use of air conditioners.
Behavioral Level of Biomimicry. The architect has incorporated the behavioral aspect of a soap bubble.
First level of Biomimicry, Organism Level The architect has replicated the form of a flower on to his building to achieve the great height, which with the help of this shape is able to reduce wind loads.
Organism and behavior level of biomimicry. The architect has incorporated both the organism level and behavior of tree in the façade.
organism level of biomimicry. The architect has incorporated the behavior of bubbles.
The project incorporates features such as water harvesting, day lighting, and sustainable building materials, which successfully reduces the project's carbon footprint.
The structure's shape not only aids in load transfer, but because of its height, it also provides an aesthetic and functional advantage by reducing wind load.
The building façade is inspired by the energy efficiency of trees to provide a natural lighting and ventilation and shading for visual comfort.
The building façade is created using the bubble-like proprieties of energy reduction and catching sunlight which is used for naturally heating the pool water.
