桃樂絲·金·成: 會呼吸的金屬

Modern skyscrapers with vast glass facades depend heavily on air conditioning, wasting energy and overheating cities. Inspired by the way human skin responds to heat, a new generation of building materials called thermo-bimetals can shade, ventilate, and adapt without using any power or controls. Early prototypes include 14,000 unique metal pieces that curl and move as sunlight shifts, letting buildings cool themselves naturally. This approach could eliminate the need for blinds, shutters, and even some traditional ventilation systems.
