| Abstract: | What can we learn from the spatial logic of collections of trees in the rainforest? Evan Greenberg of the EmTech programme at the Architectural Association (AA) School of Architecture in London and George Jeronimidis of the Centre for Biomimetics at the University of Reading combine forces to analyse the rainforest's morphology and its potential as an urban model. They suggest how the sectional height differentiation of trees could present a new way of thinking about urban organisation, accommodating varied microclimates, programmes and the city's infrastructural flows. |
