Project idea
-The design idea comes from studying the biological system of a sea sponge animal. -Sponges feed on water via stressing food particles. When water penetrates a sponge, little organisms like bacteria and protists are present. Inside the central chamber, neck cells catch and digest these food particles. Sponges can remove food particles from the water extremely efficiently. -Ostia is a gate that enables water to enter the sponge body and acts as valves to regulate water flows into the spongokol, the water then flow as a current and exit from an upper hole in its body.
Project description
The goal of the project is to design a shading facility based on the biomimicry design approach.
