When we look at trees, we see a form of natural architecture, and yet we have seemingly always exploited trees to make new buildings of our own. While a tree creates its own structure, we generally destroy other things to build, with increasingly disastrous consequences. Looking closely at how elements of plants – seeds, roots, trunks, branches, leaves, flowers and canopies – relate to buildings, this book asks what might be required to design with plants and become more attuned to vegetal life in our structures. It also proposes that we build as much for plants as for ourselves, understanding that our lives are always totally dependent on theirs. Botanical Architecture offers a provocative and original take on the relationship between ecology and architecture.
