Takto vytvoríme dom, ktorý voláme Fab Tree Hab.

It fitspasuje into the environmentprostredie. It is the environmentprostredie.

It is the landscapekrajina, right?

Je to príroda.
01:02
And you can have a hundredsto millionmilión of these homesdomovy,

2000
Takýchto domov možu byť stovky miliónov
01:04
and it's great because they suckvysať carbonuhlík.

a to je fantastické, pretože nasávajú uhlík.

22
53000
3000
Môžte mať 100 miliónov rodín alebo celé predmestia,
01:11
because these are homesdomovy that are a partčasť of the environmentprostredie.
23
56000
3000
pretože tieto domy sú súčasťou prírodného prostredia.
01:14
ImaginePredstavte si pre-growingpre-pestovanie a villageobec --

and everything is greenzelená.
26

3000
a všetko je tam zelené.
01:21
So not only do we do the veggievegetarián housedom,
27
66000
3000
Takže neprodukujeme len vegetariánske domy,
01:24
we alsotaktiež do the in-vitroin vitro meatmäso habitathabitat,

3000
ale takisto pestujeme v skúmavke obydlia z mäsa.

or homesdomovy that we're doing researchvýskum on now in BrooklynBrooklyn,

keby sa architektúra a biológia stala jednou vedou.
01:44
So we'vemy máme been doing this for a couplepár of yearsleta, and that's our lablaboratórium.
36
89000
3000
Na tomto projekte pracujeme už niekoľko rokov a o tom je naše laboratórium.
01:47
And what we do is we growrásť, pestovať

V tomto laboratóriu pestujeme

We printvytlačiť geometryGeometria where we can make industrialpriemyselný designdizajn objectsobjekty
41

3000
Pomocou geometrie dokážeme vyrobiť predmety priemyselného dizajnu,

like, you know, shoestopánky, leatherkoža beltspásy,
42

It's victimlessobete. It's meatmäso from a testtest tubetrubice.
45

2000
Je to bez obetí, mäso zo skúmavky.
02:06
So our theoryteória is that eventuallynakoniec
46
111000
2000
Teoreticky by sa nám nakoniec malo podariť
02:08
we should be doing this with homesdomovy.
47
113000
2000
robiť presne toto isté s domami.
02:10
So here is a typicaltypický studStud wallstena,

Tu vidíme typickú spojovaciu stenu,

je to architektonická konštrukcia.

and this is a sectiončasť

2000
Tuto vidíme ukážku toho,
02:16
of our proposalnávrh for a meatmäso housedom,
51
121000
2000
ako by mal podľa nášho návrhu vyzerať úsek mäsového domu.
02:18
where you can see we use fattymastné cellsbunky as insulationizolácia,
52
123000
2000
Ako môžete vidiet používame tukové bunky ako izoláciu,

02:28
And we know it's incrediblyneuveriteľne uglyškaredý.
56
133000
2000
Áno, je to neskutočne odporné.
02:30
It could have been an Englishangličtina TudorTudor or Spanishšpanielčina ColonialColonial,
57
135000
3000
Mohli sme ho vyrobiť v tudorskom alebo španielskom koloniálnom slohu,
02:33
but we kinddruh of chosevybral this shapetvar.
58
138000
2000
ale rozhodli sme sa pre tento tvar.
02:35
And there it is kinddruh of growndospelý, at leastnajmenej one particularkonkrétny sectiončasť of it.
59

Tento je uz narastený, aspoň jeho časť.
02:38
We had a bigveľký showšou in PraguePraha,
60

Mali sme veľké predstavenie v Prahe
02:40
and we decidedrozhodol to put it in frontpredné of the cathedralCathedral
61
145000
2000
a rozhodli sme sa, že tento dom umiestnime pred katedrálu,
02:42
so religionnáboženstvo can confrontkonfrontovať the housedom of meatmäso.
62
147000
3000
aby mohlo náboženstvo čeliť domu z mäsa.
02:45
That's why we growrásť, pestovať homesdomovy. Thanksvďaka very much.
63

Preto pestujeme domy.Ďakujem.
