| One can try to make a 'symbiont' - to use a buildings HVAC (Heating, Ventilation or Air Conditioning) system. The warm air leaving the building inflates and heats the membrane structure. [see 2e picture of how to design an airlock] or any other infrastructure that the inflatable is attached to as a source of power for inflation - instead of just plugging the blower into electricity, to inflate (parts of) the structure - in that way it is more energy efficient, but also the inflatable will change shape depending on the activity inside the building... | One can try to make a 'symbiont' - to use a buildings HVAC (Heating, Ventilation or Air Conditioning) system.

| Or work with green energy sources like: windmills, wind towers, scoops, solar power, kite set-ups etc. to generate energy for inflating. Or one can make use of self-inflating techniques where you wouldn't have to use electricity to inflate something. | Or work with green energy sources like: windmills, wind towers, scoops, solar power, kite set-ups etc. to generate energy for inflating.

| The skin maybe the biggest organ in architecture. Its that thin fleece which keeps the integrity of a space whole. You can design different kinds of qualities for the skin: a skin which is semipermeable, which determines what is in and what is out.... a skin who has a close relation with its surrounding which can adapt; get pimpels for protection against the cold or from excitement. It can change color: blue from being cold, red from being ashame or excitement, it can dry out get brown, get pocky from being polluted it can sweat, it has eyes and it can breath, and it decays nicely. | The skin maybe the biggest organ in architecture.

| One can make it responsive by integration of [[subtle technologies]], one can look for qualities like scales in translucency or elasticity. Some materials have to be highfrequency sealed other can be glued or just stitched. Other qualities are; non static, biodegradable, lightweight, strong, resistant to tearing, self-repairing. Toxic materials aren’t that beautiful: pvc's are very toxic like many fire-retardant materials based upon PBDE or BFR are extremely toxic, which have proven to cause development disturbances. When you’re self working with it, you can feel yourself it isn't healthy. There are plastics which contain no toxics. When a material says free of….it doesn’t mean that the replacements can be worse. So just define whats in it and if its toxic or not. (can you eat it or not). | One can make it responsive by integration of [[subtle technologies]], one can look for qualities like scales in translucency or elasticity.
