The Sagrada Familia is an enormous church in Barcelona, Spain. Designed by the world-famous architect Antoni Gaudi, the church is one of the most prominent buildings in the world. Construction of this remarkable building began in 1882, and Gaudi took over responsibility for its design in 1883.

Believe it or not, the building is still under construction. Some people love the Sagrada Familia and others hate it, but nearly everyone is fascinated by its unique design.

Gaudi believed that all architects should look to nature for inspiration.

He preferred the curves found in natural objects to the straight lines found in artificial ones. This preference can be seen in all his buildings, including the Sagrada Familia. Many parts of the church incorporate images and forms from nature. For example, the church’s spires are topped with spheres that resemble fruits. There are also turtles carved into the stone bases of columns and spiral stairs that resemble the shells of sea creatures.

   

The Eastgate Centre was constructed without a conventional cooling system. Instead, Pearce used building materials that can store large amounts of heat. The floors and walls of the building absorb heat during the day, just like the soil of a termite mound. The heat is released at night, and the walls cool down, ready to store heat again by the next morning.

The structure of the building also helps keep the building cool. There are openings near the base of the building, and outside air comes into the building through them. This air is moved through the building by a system of automatic fans. Eventually, the air, along with heat generated by human activity during the day, rises upward through the building’s internal open spaces and is released through chimneys on the roof. As a result,

Using biomimicry in architecture is just one way that humans are utilizing the lessons of nature to improve the way we do things. Biomimicry is also being used to solve problems in the fields of robotics, agriculture, and many others. Imitating the ideas of nature not only helps solve problems, but it also makes us feel closer to nature. As a result, humans are more likely to stop destroying the environment and start becoming part of it instead.

The Eastgate Centre is an office building and shopping complex in Harare, Zimbabwe. Built in 1996, it might not be as visually impressive as the Sagrada Familia. However, the building is an excellent example of biomimicry. Due to the hot climate of Harare, air conditioning systems can be very costly to install, run, and maintain. To solve this problem, the building’s architect, Mick Pearce, turned to *termite mounds for an alternative.

Termite mounds are large structures built by certain termite species. Scientists believe that the mounds stay cool due to a constant f low of air. Each mound has a network of holes referred to as chimneys. It has a large central chimney and smaller outer chimneys that are close to the ground. The heat generated by the daily activity of the termites rises up through the central chimney, eventually escaping through the top of the mound. In the meantime, cooler air is pulled in through the smaller chimneys, keeping the termites’ home at a comfortable temperature during the hot day.

Also, the soil surrounding the mound absorbs heat in the hot daytime hours. Therefore, the temperature inside the mound does not increase greatly and stays relatively cool. At night, when the outside temperature goes down, the heat is finally released.   (1)   This process inspired Pearce to design an innovative climate control system.

① 건물의 가치를 높이기 위해서는 기존의 방식에서 벗어난 혁신적인 디자인과 건축 비용의 절감이 필수적이다.

② 급진적인 건축 디자인들이 수용되는 속도에 맞추어 건축의 잠재능력을 통해 우리의 생각하고 행동하는 방식을 바꿔야 한다.

③ 현대는 조대미문의 혁신과 자유로운 의견 제시와 공유가 가능한 시대이며, 건축은 이러한 시대적 흐름에 발맞추어 우리의 생각과 행동을 바꾸려는 접근을 하고 있다.

④ 현재 건축은 기존의 구조와 관례에서 벗어나 새로운 방향성을 제시하고 있으며, 이에 따라 급진적인 건축 디자인들의 시장성이 상승하는 추세다.

⑤ 겉보기에는 혁신적이지만 기껏해야 기존의 틀을 벗어나지 못하는 현재의 건축을 개선하기 위해서 우리의 사고방식을 깨부술 건축의 잠재적 가치를 일깨우려는 노력이 필요하다.
