This project explores synthetic puffed rice bales as modular, edible architectural components designed for urban rewilding and emergency food distribution. Using biotech-enhanced rice and mycelium insulation, these lightweight, nutrient-rich structures serve both humanitarian aid and ecological restoration.
Once deployed, the modular rice bricks provide sustenance for humans and local wildlife, while gradually decomposing to support biodiversity and urban ecosystems. Their parametric design optimizes material efficiency, environmental impact, and adaptive fabrication. Additionally, embedded machine-readable tags allow for tracking and digital integration, bridging architecture, food security, and computational design.
