Sustainable solution using biomimicry and architectural lightweight membranes
| Resumo: | Sustainability is attracting additional importance in daily life through of all the propaganda surrounding global warning issue and how the quality of life on earth is the wickedest that have ever been. The impact of construction and architectural industry contributes in that matter, where solving and arguing that issue is more significant for the building professionals more than ever specially because perhaps time is running out and facing that problem nowadays will result greatly on the future life on earth. In this context, it is possible to say that it is extremely necessary to combine innovative materials and techniques so that alternative solutions can be created in order to make a further step in solving or reducing the negative effect on the planet. This research project intends to study the new technologies and techniques manifested in sustainability where it will tackle the Biomimicry concept and it relation with sustainable questions through the possibility to learn from the environs in order to find a solution. In order to apply the project as a solution to a real situation, this dissertation proposes to design an architectural structure, inspired by the spider’s nets approach, for an exterior space in the centre of the Azurém Campus in the University of Minho, where this space is the hub of pedestrian movements for the university. The architectural structure composed of a grid of bending-active elements, characterizes the decoy for a new and diversified attraction space to the campus. In addition, it is intended to show that the new technologies and materials can be the transitional link between new aspects of the field which interpret a new constructive panorama surrounding the sustainable world. |
