In Nature, certain species of insects such as ants, bees or termites lay down a trail pheromone.This secreted or excreted chemical factor triggers a social response in members of the same species.
Based on these complex adaptive systems, our concept aims to explore and experiment architecture,away from preset mental images. In this regard, we created a group of agents interacting between each other through their environement by releasing data that can be detected by other agents.
Agents are attracted by low concentrations of that data and begin to move toward the region ofincreasing concentration.
The data spreads and evaporates at a certain rate so other agents stop coming to the area and are not confused by old trails.
