ABOUT BIOMIMICRY

Referencing nature

Developing new ideas

Perfect current technology

Benefit human-being

ABOUT STRUCTURE

Expressive

Light weight

Reticular

Potential relationship with biomimicry

SITE INTRODUCTION

CERES Environment Park Medium dense society Place for community activities Organic Farms A number of children

Merri Creek Joggers & cyclists on the trail Intensive flying insects Cloudy water Water flow: north-south Few bottles & plastic bags spotted

DESIGN IDEAS

Floating capacity Multi-Layers (different density of web) Anchor to the bank Several units in a row Different kinds of units to divide the

work (catch, transfer, collect) Minimum the impact to the living

creatures

CASE STUDY 1.0

Spanish Pavilion, Japan, 2005 Honeycomb Light-weight & solidity

Understanding structure Understanding definition Discover possibilities & potentials

CASE STUDY 1.0

Simple web structure to provide a general filtration.

The variation of the hole size help to stop different types of litter. But the shape edge might be dangerous.

Repetitive triangular is good at maintaining its own structural stability.

Randomly distributed hole in different sizes.

CASE STUDY 2.0

National Stadium (aka. Bird’s Nest), Beijing, 2008 Biomimicry & structure Expressive steel frame Achievement of several design objectives (capacity, rain water control, sunlight control, etc.)
