A growing, living house, a building made of a plant seems to be a
contradiction in terms. Nevertheless, the Khasi in eastern India
already knew how to connect the branches of rubber trees to form
footbridges, and in southern Germany dance lime trees formed the
centre of villages for centuries. Following on from this, the new
discipline of Baubotanik is dedicated to designing with trees.
Built projects, prototypes and visionary concepts point the way to
a new green architecture. This introduction shows the possibilities
of such living constructions and goes into the botanical growth
laws that guide the design. The basics of constructing with trees
are presented. The book encourages a whole new look at architecture
that becomes part of urban nature.
