Nature in Architecture
Trees, plants and flowers are all around us and we enjoy their (beautiful) every day. Nature is presented in various architectural designs as well.
People interest is exploring the relationship between art and science will enjoy Singapore's ArtScience Museum. The building was designed (show) the connection between nature and the modem city environment. Visitors are often amazed to find themselves in an urban building that so (true) captures the beauty of natural forms. Harare's Eastgate Centre is superb example of biomimicry. Its architect Mick Pearce was inspired to create the Centre while (watch) a nature documentary in which termites were constructing their nests. The design reduces the need for (tradition) air conditioning and heating systems. The world's first algae-powered building is in Hamburg, Germany, whose surface is covered in panels that contain algae. The panels capture heat from the sun and convert it energy that powers the building. And the algae inside the panels can (harvest) and used to produce fuel.
(create) buildings such as these enables us to live in closer harmony with our environment.
