Defining New Architectural Design Principles with ‘Living’ Inorganic Materials
At the University of Glasgow, Leroy Cronin is leading a group of scientists that are pioneering the engineering of a fundamentally new approach to building materials, which scales up from the nano scale to the micro. Cronin reflects on the possibilities of this new paradigm that gives inorganic cellular materials the potential to be ‘programmed’ to sense environmental changes, generate power, self‐repair, shift properties and even compete with other building materials for resources.
