BIOMIMETIC ARCHITECTURE: Green Building in Zimbabwe Modeled After Termite Mounds
Inspired by Zimbabwean masonry and the self-cooling mounds of African termites, the Eastgate Centre in Harare, Zimbabwe, combines the best of green architecture and ecologically sensitive adaptation. Using biomimicry principles, the mid-rise building was designed by architect Mick Pearce in conjunction with engineers at Arup Associates. It has no conventional air-conditioning or heating, yet stays regulated year round with dramatically less energy consumption.
