The exhibition “Tree One: The Architecture of the carbon neutral city” including Tree One, Bio Lab and two AI videos is on show at The International Horticultural Exhibition 2024 which will be open to the public in Chengdu, China until October 28th, 2024.
Tree One is the living carbon capturing sculpture designed by artificial intelligence (AI) and bio-digitally grown that re-metabolises and stores the carbon molecules into its trunk and canopy while releasing Oxygen in the atmosphere.
The main structure of Tree One is designed by algorithms whose recognition of arboreal systems negotiates the architectural logic of the column. The Tree One trunk is entirely made of algae-based biopolymers and its strength derives primarily from the unique pleated morphology inspired by the fibrous trunk of actual trees.
