THE BOOK'S AIM IS TO ANALYZE SOME OF THE MOST INNOVATIVE PROJECTS OF SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE THAT LUIS DE GARRIDO HAS MADE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS (2009-2011), MATERIALIZING THEIR OWN CONCEPT OF "ARTIFICIAL NATURE" (SINCE THE CONSTRUCTION OF GREEN BOX). LUIS DE GARRIDO HAS MATURED IN RECENT YEARS A NEW INNOVATIVE CONCEPT IN ARCHITECTURE, CALLING IT AS "ARTIFICIAL NATURE ARCHITECTURE": AN ARTIFICIAL ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM THAT HAS ITS OWN RULES, AND DEVELOPS IN PARALLEL WITH THE NATURAL ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM. IMMERSED IN THIS ARTIFICIAL ECOSYSTEM, LUIS DE GARRIDO HAS SIGNED A NEW ARCHITECTURE PARADIGM ABLE TO USE A SET OF INDUSTRIAL ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS, IDEAL FOR CREATING BUILDINGS THAT HAVE AN INFINITE LIFE CYCLE, Y WHOSE COMPONENTS CAN BE RECOVERED, REPAIRED AND REUSED IN A CONTINUOUS AND PERMANENT WAY, WITHOUT PRODUCING WASTE AND EMISSIONS. SIMILARLY, THESE BUILDINGS CAN CONTINUOUSLY GROW, MOVE, RELOCATE AND BIODEGRADE, LIKE LIVING ORGANISMS. THEY HAVE A REALLY VERY LOW ENERGY CONSUMPTION, AND THE ENERGY CONSUMED HAS A NATURALLY OCCURRING (SOLAR AND GEOTHERMAL, WHICH IS THE SAME ENERGY USED BY NATURE ORGANISMS)
