Whereas a tree creates its own structure, humans generally destroy other things to build, with increasingly disastrous consequences. In \u003ci\u003eBotanical Architecture\u003c\/i\u003e, Paul Dobraszczyk looks closely at how elements of plants-seeds, roots, trunks, branches, leaves, flowers, and canopies - compare with and constitute human-made buildings.\u003cbr\u003eGiven the omnipresence of plant life in and around our structures, Dobraszczyk argues that we ought to build as much for plants as for ourselves, understanding that our lives are always totally dependent on theirs. \u003ci\u003eBotanical Architecture\u003c\/i\u003e offers a provocative and original take on the relationship between ecology and architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46857102917790,"sku":"ADS-9781789149272","price":49.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781789149272.jpg?v=1779154381","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781789149272","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
