MYCOHAB - world's first mycotectural structure

Mycohab is the world’s first self supporting mycelium structure. The structural walls are made from the byproduct of mushroom cultivation

FROM BUSH TO STRUCTURE

The structure of the walls were made of compressed mycelium composite with compressive strengths of 6MPa that was grown on invasive bush.

12 tons of invasive bush was turned into 3 tons of gourmet mushrooms that went to market and the byproduct was turned into 925 mycoblocks that stored 12 tons of COe and regenerated over a hectare of land

Just like wood products mycoterials should be faced with exterior materials - here we see the mud plaster used to finish mycohab.

The components for Mycohab were selected to be regenerative (as in the mycoterials) or recyclable (metals)
