Abstract
The pertinence of the study of bionic architecture is substantiated by escalating interest in establishing a harmonious, nature-oriented approach to the building design.
Purpose: The aim of the work is to conduct a comprehensive review of extent research and methodologies pertaining to bionic shapes, their implementation, and evaluation of their beneficial impact on wind effects. The article discusses general concepts of implementing "natural rules" and adapting shapes to the building functions to minimize the impact of negative factors, including wind loads, using mathematical models.
Methodology: The analysis of bionic systems as prototypes for the design implementation of buildings; study of modern embodiments of bionic trends.
Research findings: A comprehensive definition of bionics in architecture and design, delineates the trajectory of complex building shapes and presents examples of implementation of bionic architecture.
Value: Research into bionic shapes facilitates the development of knowledge concerning the creation of a comfortable environment and generation of innovative solutions for new design. The obtained results provide more comprehensive perception of design, evoking widespread interest and driving innovative knowledge.
