HydroTensile — A Bucky Lab Exploration into Water-Harvesting Façades
At Bucky Lab, TU Delft, we explore how façades can do more than protect buildings. HydroTensile is one of those explorations — a research-driven project that investigates how a façade can actively contribute to water sustainability by harvesting fog and dew from the air. HydroTensile
