INSPIRATIONS OF NATURE IN ARCHITECTURE. BIONIC PAVILIONS. The search for bionics is an interesting design notion, where the form of architectural objects is not only inspired by the aesthetics or patterns found in nature, but how its shape is reproduced by the natural processes of morphogenesis. Depending on how various patters in nature are replicated, a number of bionic modeling can be observed. The design based on the principles of forming natural structures requires some understanding of the ongoing processes and their changes. Thanks to the improvement of generative design methods allowing for the advanced knowledge in the field of technology to build the individual structural elements, a structural replication and analysis of biological processes is possible. The creation of mathematical models is an attempt to describe the forms found in the natural world, in particular the aspects of the morphogenesis. The Voronoi diagrams, or the Fibonacci sequence, which are increasingly used as a method of the discretization of the surface, deserve special consideration among the mentioned patterns found in nature. Digital tools play an important role in this process through the application of appropriate algorithms and advanced computer programs, but also experimental activities geared to building prototype solutions. The design of complicated spatial forms under different aspects is also aimed at searching for optimized technical and material solutions, in which unnecessary geometry is being eliminated. The transfer of biological models into architecture also applies to functional processes and systems found in nature in terms of shaping the coating elements. This paper is dedicated to the presentation of the completed experimental pavilions, which were created based on the bionic ideas, where the search for the multifunctional materials seems to be particularly important and could in turn revolutionize the building industry. |
