Since 1985 Cervera & Pioz have been conducting extensive research into BIOLOGICAL STRUCTURES.
Prof. Javier Pioz and Prof. María Rosa Cervera are the first Spanish architects to work with the modern science of BIONICS, which emerged in the mid-60s as a bio-technological analysis of nature and its application to Technical and Graphic Design.
Cervera & Pioz's research team has analyzed the growing mechanisms and the laws of flexibility and adaptability in plants and other natural species, and has developed a new theory and practice for an innovative connection between Nature and Architecture: ARCHITECTURE & BIONICS, a union of the common principles of Architecture, Engineering and Biology.
