Interesting Video posted up by tutor, that looks at the concept of "growing" a home. The speaker described his design as a "meat house" a house in which has living cells... Wierd concept I know! To think a building has livings cells makes me question -- wouldn't it eventually decay?? --- and how do they avoid this? Was a short video so it leaves me with many questions. But to keep to keep it short, although the concept is really fascinating, Its not exactly clear as to how one can build a house out of living tissue -- is it truly realistic?? Do they take inspiration form the functioning of a human body?
