It is the vision of a world with buildings that grow, self-heal and create virtuous cycles where waste from one process feeds another. A vision where the spaces that we inhabit are attuned to both the human occupants and non-human microbial ecologies. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the first book to ground the concept of biotechnology in the built environment in tangible, large-scale prototypes. With rich visuals, it presents materials and processes that exploit the many possibilities of shaping the built environment with micro-organisms. At the same time, scientific and technical challenges are discussed, pointing to the need for a shift in thinking and culture to ensure progress.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFirst comprehensive publication on the state of research \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDemonstrates the use of renewable materials in design \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrative, scientific documentation for design professions and researchers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp class=\"search-metadata\"\u003eDesigning the Built Environment with Living Organisms Ruth Morrow, Ben Bridgens, Louise Mackenzie 978-3-0356-2579-0\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Birkhäuser Verlag GmbH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53181883908424,"sku":"9783035625790","price":75.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0946\/0255\/9816\/files\/9783035625790.jpg?v=1779811458","url":"https:\/\/www.hochparterre-buecher.ch\/products\/bioprotopia","provider":"Hochparterre Bücher","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
