Designing with living materials: thoughts on the paradigm shift and an overview of the state of research
What is “Bioprotopia”? 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.
This 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.
Entwerfen mit lebenden Materialien: Gedanken zum Paradigmenwechsel und ein Überblick zum Stand der Forschung
Was ist Bioprotopia? Es ist die Vision von einer Welt, in der Gebäude wachsen, sich selbst heilen und positive Kreisläufe schaffen – eine Vision, in der Prozesse sich gegenseitig mit ihren Abfällen speisen und Lebensräume auf menschliche Bewohner als auch auf mikrobiellen Ökologien abgestimmt sind.
Dieses Buch zeigt erstmals, dass die Vision dieser Einheit von Biotechnologie und gebauter Umwelt Wirklichkeit werden kann. Anhand großmaßstäblicher Prototypen werden Materialien und Prozesse vorgestellt, die die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten der Gestaltung der gebauten Umwelt mit Mikroorganismen nutzen.
Gleichzeitig werden die wissenschaftlichen und technischen Herausforderungen erörtert und auf die Notwendigkeit für ein Umdenken und die kulturellen Veränderungen hingewiesen, die für die weitere Entwicklung nötig sind.
