I recently stumbled on the Stenocara gracilipes or the "Nambi Beetle" that uses the texture on its back to collect water from the surrounding atmosphere. With the upcoming global water crisis, I believe that incorporating such a design or texture onto the exterior walls of the building may prove to be beneficial. I was hoping I could get your input on the same :)

Geothermal venting is an efficient way to cool homes.

As a student who aspires to be an architect, I hope to be a part of a wave where implementing these building designs/ strategies are more commonplace

@Michael Freed I think this one discusses the the concept of 'power'. The solutions to these are not simple but if you wanted to understand in more I'll suggest looking into the fields of psychology. (there are lots of interesting stuff in there with this topic).

I love that more architects are realizing the importance of implementing sustainability into architecture! It is essential!

Great! Just a quick note: HVAC stands for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning, not the acronym you used. Keep up the good work!

I find that my Architecture and Interior Design students remember the purpose of the acronym HVAC much better when I call it Heating, Ventilating, and Cooling. Any air that is changed from outside temperature is "conditioned" therefore AC shouldn't just mean cooling, but heating as well. I will *continue* with my evolved terms for the acronym.

i love your channel !

Excellent video! I just shared this with my YT community. I am planning to create more short videos on specific biomimicry applications later this year. Great work! I recommend watching a series on CuriosityStream called 'Evolve' hosted by Patrick Aryee. The show focuses on biomimicry applications for solving human societal problems and is absolutely stunning.

There’s one of those wind trees near my house. Unfortunately they placed it around buildings and trees in a dense area, so I have never seen it move.

Do you mean the turbines in the tree never spin? That seems counter productive...

Is it possible to buy wind trees for privat use? If so, where would you start your search for providers of theese or similar products?

This is a good question. I don't know but you can certainly contact them on the website I included in the video description newworldwind.com/contact-en/

El salto más significativo en tecnología llegará gracias a la biomimética. Pienso que es posible crear dispositivos que usen el diseño y comportamiento de las semillas como base para formar estructuras en otros planetas o satélites usando los recursos locales. Una semilla no es un dispositivo mágico. Usa la física y la química para formar estructuras de todo tipo. Desde delicadas flores, hasta gigantescos y pesados troncos, a partir de una pequeña capsula llena de información que libera mecanismos a medida que absorbe, procesa y organiza los minerales disponibles en el suelo. Transportar semillas artificiales al espacio, ayudaría a construir estructuras, módulos y generar materias primas de manera más rápida, económica, eficiente y sustentable que en la actualidad. Se me hace un poco extraño que propuestas así no se toquen en ningún canal que hable sobre "biomimética" o "bioinspiración". De hecho, también se está trabajando en bacterias que pueden ayudar a construir hormigón en otros lugares usando los recursos locales, sin embargo, poca información se divulga al respecto. Cuando veo las animaciones donde se hablan de proyectos para poblar otros planetas como Marte, se me hace un poco difícil creer que sigan planteando la opción de transportar toneladas y toneladas de material en naves espaciales para construir módulos y cosas así. Más que la propuesta de un proyecto serio, parece la animación de una historia de Julio Verne, donde al parecer, ni los mismos encargados del marketing han sido informados de las nuevas tecnologías que ya se están desarrolando.

I don't think so, just a lot of concrete surface to dissipate the heat as you can see on the building.

I would love to have such a wind tree in my garden. Why don't we make a tiny wind tree forest close to villages. Much better than those huge and ugly Windturbines planted all over the place.

Probably yes, but I would also say that nature does not do only geometrical forms. Some things like bee cells are perfectly geometrical (hexagons) but most things are not (trees, corals, etc).
