Scientists knit futuristic eco-building designs using fungal networks
phys.org
Scientists hoping to reduce the environmental impact of the construction industry have developed a way to grow building materials using knitted molds and the root network of fungi. Although researchers have experimented with similar composites before, the shape and growth constraints of the organic material have made it hard to develop diverse applications that fulfill its potential.

      I haven’t been this excited for the future in years.

      Now we just need levitation.
