Publisher: Birkhauser, ISBN: 9783035611069, Editors: Dirk E. Hebel and Felix Heisel, Format: Hardcover, 280 x 220 mm, 216pp

The 21st century faces a radical change in how we produce construction materials - a shift towards cultivating, breeding, raising, farming, or growing future resources.

This book presents new industrialised production methods and innovative cultivated building materials, like cement grown by bacteria, bricks made of mushroom mycelium or bamboo fibers as reinforcement for concrete.

Spanning scientific research to product development and application, the book builds a bridge between the academic and the professional world of architecture.
