The origin of this prototype is the will to answer with an innovative architectural proposal (Bionic Vertical Space) various questions that are in the mind of every architect and urban planner at the time of resolving the numerous problems supposed by high-rise buildings.
The Bionic Tower is the fruit of seven years of work conducted by the firm "CERVERA&PIOZ, wpa", the first in Spain to attempt applying the principles of Bionics to the problems facing tall buildings. A comparative investigation on the growth of vegetable species of varying sizes (from a blade of grass to huge tree structures) discovered important innovations that can be applied to the BVS Project and Mega Structures in architecture in general.

The challenge was not to conceive the highest possible tower, a task in itself stimulating and deeply rooted in the physical spirit of every architect, but rather, it has been to find similarities between the logic of vital growth of organisms and the architectural, mechanical, and structural logic normally applied to the design of tall buildings.
A blade of grass, measuring scarcely a few centimeters and a tree ten meters high, are two organic systems which must respond to similar biological, physical and chemical demands. Though these living organisms solve their respective existential problems differently, both need light, air, water and the context in which they flourish. They have the same need to rise from the ground, support their own weight, resist wind forces, channel internally the movement of fluids, realise complex chemical processes, temporarily set in motion sophisticated systems of acceleration or delay, enable growth through structural and mechanical transformations which tend to insure its present and future survival. All of this is achieved while guaranteeing the survival of the species through the clever production, offering and distribution of its precious seeds. It would seem that vegetation holds great promise as a vertical growth model and general analytical reference, with their vertical organisation space, to the architectural design of tall buildings.
