polinature

polinature nook 🌱

this structure displays a beautiful cohesion of natural and built environment, one that is constantly in need of climate change resiliency as designed by @belindatato & the team @ecosistemaurbano @emiliopdoiztua @jlvmateo

Polinature was funded by the "Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability at Harvard University" and the "GSD Design Innovation Grant".

to build up with scaffolding’s is an idea that is repeatable, strong, and universal

in the middle of pollinature you are surrounded by greenery that feels like looking up in a forest with open sky above

inflatable structures (made by @pneuhaus) have a feel of classic storefront awnings, but closer looks display craftsmanship with custom sewing and lighting fixtures as well as cooling abilities for high heat response

details show as you explore

solar panels at the peak, varieties of native plants complimenting one another, and infograph’s showing the meaning behind the project’s mission
