Abstract :
The application of bio-receptive façade systems in architecture toward better performance and sustainability in buildings. Due to materials and systems that can support growths of living things, such structures can be made to be invisible. This paper discusses the practical, aesthetic, and environmental impacts of using bio-receptive concrete, photobioreactors, and innovative façade design. Such important ecological benefits are carbon sequestration, mitigation of the urban heat island effect, and biodiversity promotion. The key findings reveal the examples of climate-adaptable buildings: BIQ House and KMC Corporate Office. The value of interdisciplinary cooperation and material science innovation is pointed out by tackling problems such as cost and maintenance. After all, bio-receptive façade systems are marketed as an environmentally conscious means to improve living within the city through an integration of architectural functionality with environmental stewardship.
