What if we learned to live with ‘rodents’, harmoniously.
They did us no harm, and we did them no harm?
We save millions a year in toxic pesticides and stop killing them off- learn how to co-habitat.
The city would plant trees and flowers around our avenues instead of poison and traps.
The idea is not to build new 'green' buildings but rather take what we already have and make it sustainable for all. Why spend millions on new buildings when what we already inhabit is in need of repairs?
What if we could, in the process, build facades which would allow for the elimination of poisons and damage done around buildings by rodents building nest? This could be a modular surface designed to affix to any building surface without causing structural damage. Forming structure and architectural shape based off of magnetic relationships within the surface.
Birds could nest inside the facades, in fabricated nesting boxes, and those boxes would sense the presence of a nest and illuminate when they inhabited the spaces.
The facades would be art in and of themselves, making the structures more valuable, less poisonous and teach us a thing or too about what little nature is left around us.
