Plants have neither muscles nor “classic” local joints-and yet they can move. In the course of evolution, efficient movement mechanisms and esthetic movement forms have developed. Architects and engineers, in cooperation with biomechanists, are benefiting from this botanical “offering” and drawing inspiration for the development of new types of facade shading systems for modern buildings.
