A group of Indian and Italian architects have come together to build a pavilion using the fleshy part of mushroom or other fungus, otherwise known as\u00a0mycelium and displayed at\u00a0the Kochi Muziris Biennale 2016. They believe that this technology can be used for future constructions as well.<\/p>\n

Asif Rahman of Indian studio Beetles 3.3, and GiombattistaArredia and Mohamad Yassin of Italian architecture studio Yassin Arredia Design teamed together to create the Shell Mycelium installation in Fort Kochi, Kerala.<\/p>\n

The aim is to help\u00a0mycelium grow as an alternative\u00a0construction material which can be easily sourced and is suited for\u00a0building temporary structures. Owing to its biodegradable disposal, the material stands as an environmental friendly replacement to the contemporary materials being used for structural construction. They believe that this method could be used to make temporary shelters required during sports tournament or world expos of various kinds.<\/p>\n

Making use of “heavy construction material” makes it difficult for demolition and the subsequent disposal of waste. The uniqueness of the material is also its ability to\u00a0merge with the framework to which it is added. For the pavilion designed for the Kochi\u00a0Muziris Biennale 2016 titled ‘Shell Mycelium pavilion’, they combined the material with\u00a0a triangulated timber framework. The architects\u00a0created a series of tray-like cavities in the structure which were filled with fungus then covered over with coir pith, which consists of coconut husk fibres. In time, the top layer dried up and died, creating a protective shell over the mycelium.<\/p>\n

In recent past,\u00a0New York studio The Living, used it to build a pavilion for the MoMA PS1 gallery, and Dutch designer Eric Klarenbeek, used it to create furniture.<\/p>\n
