Ai and Biomimicry: Designing Energy-efficient Homes for the Future
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper explores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and biomimicry in designing energy-efficient homes. By using AI-powered design and concepts inspired by nature, such as termite mounds for natural cooling and lotus leaf-designed roofs to repel water and dirt, architects and developers can design homes that use less energy and are more sustainable. AI can be leveraged as a tool by analyzing environmental data to make buildings more efficient, while biomimicry offers natural solutions for controlling temperature and improving ventilation. The paper shares examples from countries like Australia, Japan, and the U.S. to demonstrate how concepts rooted in nature and the application of new technologies are helping cities tackle the challenges of climate change and energy. Even though factors like high costs and regulations limit progress, the paper suggests ways that policymakers and city planners can support new technologies for buildings that are easier to construct and environmentally friendly. Thus, a more sustainable future in home design that merges nature with modern technology, coupled with AI and biomimicry, offers extraordinary and impactful solutions.
