An Architecture bio-inspired by the phyllotaxis of plants.
The layout and orientation of the buildings follow the same organizational principle as the plants. Like the leaves, all the units benefit from direct sunlight. This layout has been calculated by a biomimetic algorithm that optimizes the density and solar gains for the construction.
The benefit is twofold: it reduces consumption by using passive solar energy and improves the health of users by regulating their biorhythm.
