One of the ideas that I came across in my research for Book 2 was the idea that buildings and infrastructure could be grown rather than built, which got me looking into bioengineering. Although we have only really seen developments in food and medicine in this area as of late, is it a concept that could be extended to architectural engineering?

In Book 2 I needed humanity and the Nederig to be able to drastically increase their presence within the universe, to demonstrate the improvements that had come to pass since this alien species arrival.

In previous posts I have discussed improved terraforming techniques, but I needed something that would be able to support a rapid programme of colonisation from an infrastructure perspective. I thought if buildings could be grown, and the process accelerated, it would fit my timescales of expansion.

What do you think? Will we, in the not so distant future, begin growing buildings and homes, rather than making them from materials extracted from the Earth? Humanity's Dawn A Symmetry of Sentience An Epic Hard Military Science Space Opera by Martin Rowe
