Abstract : BioGreen is about solutions refined and developed by nature. This paper discusses the potential of the concepts
under the domain of ‘sustainability’ for human welfare by reducing the harmful effects of the built environment on us. It
shows the connection between green techniques and biomimetics and to point out applicability of combination of both the
methods in construction activities. Modifications in the building services are mimicked from nature such as walls from
homeostasis in organisms, natural ventilation from termites, solar panels from photosynthesis, etc. Environmental services
such as using CO2 as a feedstock for construction related activities, using Ornilux glasses and saving birds from collision
with the buildings, using prefabricated steel for fast building members save time and generate almost no wastes as formwork
is avoided. If sustainability is defined as a combination of practices and values, BioGreen fits in the picture with flying
colors due to the coverage of both the methods.
