Wild Buildings and Bridges: Architecture Inspired by Nature

When you think about architecture, what comes to mind? Tree roots? Jellyfish? Lily pads? Probably not! But nature has long been a source of inspiration for buildings and bridges.

In this book, you'll encounter human-made structures inspired by sea creatures, beetles, termite towers, trees, grass - and more.

Learn all about:
• a flood-proof house that floats like a lily pad
• an earthquake-proof bridge designed like a special type of grass
• a building that beats the heat like a cactus

This book will fascinate budding architects and makers who love to build and to understand how things work.
