Huts
Huts build in a hexagon shape, using wood and Aircrete to create a well insulated affordable dwelling.
Aircrete is a lightweight, non-toxic building material made by mixing cement, water, and a special foam to create millions of air bubbles. It is fireproof, insect-proof, and moisture-resistant, offering both structural and insulating properties in a single material. Aircrete is also easy to cut, shape, and work with using standard woodworking tools, making it a versatile option for DIY projects and structures like domes, walls, and floors
Nature uses the hexagon shape for efficiency and strength, seen in phenomena like honeycombs, which maximize storage with minimal wax, and insect eyes, which allow for wide-angle vision. The hexagonal pattern appears in everything from basalt columns, formed by cooling lava, to snowflakes and the arrangement of cells in certain plant and animal structures.
-
Bees build hexagonal cells to store honey and larvae because this shape uses the least amount of wax while providing maximum space and strength.
The compound eyes of insects are made of many hexagonal facets that work together to provide a wide and dynamic field of view.
The hexagonal shapes of columnar basalt formations, like those at the Giant's Causeway, are a result of cracks forming as lava cools and contracts
The six-sided structure of a snowflake is a direct reflection of the hexagonal arrangement water molecules form as they crystalize.
When bubbles form a raft or a large foam, they naturally adopt hexagonal shapes to achieve a stable arrangement with a minimal surface area.
Hexagons are also found in the human retina, in an area called the fovea, to help provide a sharp and detailed view of the world by efficiently covering a curved surface.
