Mimovera, a biomimetic bus shelter, was Inspired by the responsive traits of the mimosa plant. Its retractable canopy expands during rain, enhancing passenger shelter. Built-in algae tubes absorb carbon dioxide, while a rainwater harvesting system enables irrigation. Equipped with high-efficiency solar panels, the shelter ensures self-sufficient power. The modular design facilitates versatile installation, promoting a sustainable commuting environment. Mimovera embodies our dedication to eco-friendly design and a brighter future.
