Greener

eye-catchers

into our cities

The goal of the project is to investigate, using different methods, the possibility of developing an organic facade material that would act as a functional and artistic element enlivening the environment.

New biophilic facade material

The impact goal for this new material is to answer the biophilic questions that humans innately need around themselves in order to feel well in urban cities. With the help of biodesign, new types of materials can be developed that imitate phenomena and processes occurring in nature.

The most important goal in terms of climate change is for the material to works as a carbon sink. By bringing greener eye-catchers on a vertical surface, we create well-being for city dwellers. Organic visual material that lives and changes, is an element that beautifies the environment and also withstands changing conditions.
