photo credit: Martin Grabner The experimental architectural study The Living Arch combines biology, technology and design in the quest for healthy and comfortable spaces. It demonstrates the only partially explored potential of microorganisms to create a sustainable cycle. A mycelium structure grows in a 3D-printed clay-based frame that seeks to transfer this potential to a built environment.… Read More »The Living Arch: A Study Model for a Novel Wellbeing Architecture for Honeybees| HIVEOPOLIS

This was not a surprising event since in the wild, also, the mycelium and honeybee territories are closely located. But, he thought that the bees might be benefiting from the… Read More »Growing Therapeutic Beehives| HIVEOPOLIS
