New Architectures: Nature and Phenomena

TedX Talk Jackson Hole, WY.
October 2nd, 2011

Jefferson Ellinger (Assistant Professor at RPI) and Nona Yehia, partners in the architecture firm E/Ye Design, practice and conduct research at their office in Wyoming and at CASE/Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York City.

Talk: Architects, artists, scientists and designers have always been inspired by the beauty and elegance in nature; studying, imitating and attempting to recreate the beauty and systems in nature has shaped life as we know it. Today, the question is how these natural phenomena can become instrumental in the design of new architectures that radically redefine our built environment.
