Description

Explore the intersection of biology and design with Living Construction by Routledge. As modern biotechnologies provide greater control over the building blocks of life, designers face new possibilities for creating sustainable materials and structures. This book examines how emerging fields like synthetic biology can lead to materials that are grown, self-assembling, self-healing, and adaptable to change. While much of the current conversation around biotechnology in design remains speculative, this publication serves as a practical bridge. It connects theoretical discourse with realized design applications, making it an essential resource for architects and designers looking to understand the future of bio-based construction. Whether you are interested in the science of self-assembling structures or the potential for sustainable, living materials, this book provides a foundation for navigating the next era of design.

Key Features

Explores the potential of synthetic biology to create new sustainable materials and structures.

Provides a bridge between speculative design theories and actual scientific design applications.

Examines biotechnologies that allow for materials that are grown, self-assembling, or self-healing.

Offers insights into how designers can use biological building blocks to create adaptable structures.

Serves as the first volume in the specialized Bio Design series from Routledge.
