This paper reviews the state-of-the-art smart building research by a bibliometric analysis, a
content analysis, and a qualitative review. The bibliometric analysis of 364 academic papers …

Definition The term “bioinspiration” defines a creative approach based on the observation of
biological principles and transfer to design. Biomimicry is the recent approach, which …

The architectural form of the façade determines its identity as well as interactions with micro-
climate forces of the ambient environment, such as solar radiation. The dynamic nature of …

With the development of the biomimicry approach, new and creative ideas have been
established to solve problems in architectural design. In the designs based on this …

Buildings must adapt and respond dynamically to their environment to reduce their energy
loads and mitigate environmental impacts. Several approaches have addressed responsive …

The growing demand for a sustainable leather industry with a low environmental impact has
prompted the development of alternative vegetable-based materials. In this study, a …

Daylight contains dynamic features such as color and intensity that may vary over time. The
ideas of Orosi windows and biomimetic kinetic lessons of butterfly wings are viewed as …

Application of biomimetics has expanded progressively to other fields in recent years,
including urban and architectural design, scaling up from materials to a larger scale …

Many recent studies in the field of the kinetic façade developed the grid-based modular
forms through primary kinetic movements which are restricted in the simple shapes …

The review summarizes the plant lifehacks on material design on the example of the
impressive cellulose-enriched cell wall deposited by fibers of many plants. This specific cell …
