LEARN TO SEE WHAT OTHERS DON'T
A 7-DAY HANDS-ON LAB: BIOMIMICRY | BIO ARCHITECTURE | NATURE INSPIRED DESIGN
Learn to read nature's principles, translate them into geometry, test them with your own hands - and discover new possibilities for what you can create.
-
TULUM MEXICO · 29TH NOV - 6TH DEC
FOR ARCHITECTS, DESIGNERS, ENGINEERS, MAKERS, DEVELOPERS, INVENTORS AND INTERDISCIPLINARY CREATORS
WHAT IF THE SOLUTION IS OUTSIDE WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW?
Nature has been solving structural, material and environmental problems for billions of years. What if we stopped designing against these principles — and learned to see, understand and work with them?
This is a hands-on exploration of geometry, forces, biology, natural systems and emerging technologies. You will not just learn what works — you will build, test, make mistakes and discover why it works.
Expand what you know.
Learn to see connections.
Create what you could not see before.
7 DAYS. 7 HANDS-ON, IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES.
EXPLORE TENSILE & COMPRESSION GEOMETRY
Work with textiles to discover how natural bionic tensile forms emerge through tension — and how wet fabric naturally finds its most efficient geometry when inverted into compression. I will also share key theory on geometry in architecture so your homes are not only beautiful but safe
DESIGN YOUR DREAM HOME OR RETREAT CENTER
Develop your own home concept and learn to draw it from multiple perspectives: plan, front elevation, side elevation, and section — turning an idea into a complete architectural concept.
DESIGN BIONIC & TRANSFORMABLE INTERIOR
Design a flexible interior with removable and foldable beds, tables, climbing nets, and other transformable elements — maximizing the available square metres while adding aesthetics, functionality, and authenticity.
REDRAW THE SEED HOME - 1:10
Redraw the complex biogeometric SeedHome at 1:10 scale, in order to learn how to translate your own architectural design onto the ground at full scale
EXPERIENCE YOUR DESIGN AT FULL SCALE
Paint, sketch and explore your architectural ideas through Virtual Reality, experiencing your concepts from the inside at real scale. Then use AI as a design tool to develop your ideas into professional visualisations and presentations.
MOULDING YOUR BIONIC HOME
We will work with plasticine, using our hands to feel, mould and shape bionic forms and natural geometry.
As we shape the material, the ideas explored throughout the week come together.
This is where your home is born — from an idea, through your hands, into physical form.
LAND & LANDSCAPE DESIGN
We will spend an entire day designing your land and working with permaculture and geomancy (power spots) and bio geometry principles
THROUGHOUT THE PRACTICUM WE WILL ALSO DO
-
Guided Wellness Practices
Morning yoga, dance, walks, meditation and conscious practices to elevate our state of being throughout the day. -
Exclusive Local Excursions
Private visits to Antonio Gaudí’s masterpieces (where applicable, paid separately). -
Interwoven Theory Classes
Essential theory woven naturally into our hands-on practice. -
Learn with a Master
Be guided by a master with 30 years of experience in bionic and biomimetic design. -
Cacao Ceremony
Close our journey with a cacao ceremony celebrating transformation, connection and gratitude.
