About Exploration Architecture
Exploration was established in 2007 by the Architect, Michael Pawlyn. The London based company has been described as a pioneer of biomimicry and is best known for innovative schemes such as, The Sahara Forest Project, The Biomimetic Office Project, The Fjord IT Mountain Server and inspiring consultancy work. The company uses biomimicry to radically rethink existing building types and devise a new approach to the design process. Biomimicry is a rapidly emerging discipline that learns from the remarkable catalogue of solutions to be found in biology – all of which have been refined by 3.8 billion years of evolution. Whereas sustainable development has often been based on mitigating negatives, biomimicry represents a new paradigm and reveals solutions that go beyond ‘sustainable’ to be restorative and deliver net positive impacts. We have successfully worked with a wide range of organisations to help them succeed in the shift that is already underway - from the industrial age to the ecological age of humankind. Frequently our projects achieve substantial resource savings and reveal major commercial opportunities for our clients. Our aim is to produce solutions that address the major challenges of our age which we see as climate change, biodiversity loss, resource scarcity and energy, food & water security.
