Symbio2 Biofacades

Invented by the architecture firm XTU Architects, the SymBIO2 project aims to provide an innovative symbiosis between microalgae and buildings. Through a controlled microalgae culture system integrated in « biofacades », thermal and chemical exchanges between microalgae culture and the host building are fully optimized. The main objectives of this project are to improve the building's green credentials and offer an alternative and cost-effective solution to algae culture farmers.
