Abstract:
|
Prefabricated construction has become a great alternative to the demands of the contemporary world,
especially in terms of sustainability and construction efficiency, when compared to traditional systems.
Its use around the world, especially in developed countries, has been consolidated over the last few
decades as an important strategy on the road to sustainable development, making the system an excellent
option for reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere, especially when combined with the
use of building materials with a low carbon footprint. In this context, the use of this construction system
to create micro-homes emerges from the rapprochement between the disciplines of design and
architecture, especially given the scale of these artifacts, and tends to recommend bio-inspiration as an
efficient design assumption, especially when supported by technological tools for its conception. Thus,
this article proposes a brief survey of this type of application, in order to guide the design of the artifact
in the search for solutions that use Biomimicry as an efficient design strategy, in order to promote design
strategies that can contribute to the creation of built space in an innovative and sustainable way. |
