Synopsis
Bionics is a modern science which combines the study of natural sciences with the many engineering and technical sciences. The aim is to synthesize knowledge derived from the biotechnological analysis of natural forms and the sophisticated human biological systems. Since becoming a partnership in 1979, Javier Pioz and Maria Rosa Cervera have worked to develop new architecture and city planning proposals inspired by an understanding of the logical principles of flexibility, adaptability and energy-efficiency that are prevalent in all natural species. In 1992, they began their research into biological structures in nature and their application to modern structural engineering and architecture, including projects in Dubai's Vertical City. A direct result of these studies was the discovery of a new concept of structure and construction: Bio-Structure.
