Bioreceptive Building Materials for Urban Ecology

Shaista Parveen, Muhammad Tariq

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 41-55 · 10.55121/nefm.v2i1.856

Bioreceptive building materials represent an emerging intersection of architecture, ecology, and materials science in which surfaces are intentionally designed to encourage colonization by microorganisms, mosses, lichens, and other organisms. Compared to traditional strategies of seeing biological growth as an act of degradation
