The best building isn't the efficient one.

It's the autonomous one.

Most buildings depend completely on outside systems.
Water, power, heating, and cooling.
If the supply stops, the building stops.

A building designed with natural systems handles its own water.
It heat & cools itself.
It keeps working.

It can still connect to the city.
But it just doesn't panic when the city fails.

For 15 years we have designed and built buildings like this,
in very different climates around the world.

And our Academy has taught more than 500 people how buildings can do this.

Today we close enrollment for this edition.

If you want to to join, this is the last call.

We build everything backwards.

Our homes depend on unstable systems.
They drain water, energy, and resources—
and give us pollution, waste, and rising bills in return.

That’s not progress.
That’s dependence.

A building should do the opposite.
◾ It should make its own water.
◾Grow food.
◾Cool & heat itself without machines.
◾And give life back to nature.

That’s what we call Nature Based Architecture —
turning every building into a living ecosystem.

For the past 15 years, we’ve been designing and building projects that work with nature instead of against it.

This post shows 7 Nature-Based Solutions that could completely change how we build — and protect what’s coming.

The sun is not what makes a city hot - the buildings are!

It's like the beach - the sand burns your feet but the grass next to it is cool.

Concrete buildings burn our cities while Green Buildings keep them cool.

A concrete building soak up sunlight all day and give it back all night.

Green buildings do the opposite. Plants shade the surface, and the water they release cools the air.

A concrete wall in full sun can pass 60 degrees. A green building can stay up to 30 degrees cooler.

This is what we do at Biotonomy. We transform conventional buildings into green buildings.

And it's what we teach in our Academy.

Can you believe plants can turn toilet wastewater into clean, usable water?

It sounds crazy, but it’s 100% possible — no chemicals just nature!

80% of the world’s wastewater goes untreated and most people don’t even know this, but it’s a serious problem.

The good news is that the solution is simple and scalable.

Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Plants are placed in a special system filled with gravel. They grow and prepare to clean the water.

2️⃣ The magic happens under the surface - As the water flows, plant roots and bacteria remove waste and harmful substances.

3️⃣ Clean water flows out! Safe for irrigation, flushing toilets, or returning to nature.

Imagine if every building treated its own wastewater. We could save millions of liters and restore biodiversity at the same time.

If you don't understand natural cooling, you don't understand architecture.

Most buildings are built the wrong way.
First we build the shape.
Then we add AC to fix it.

A glass box in the sun gets hot.
Like a greenhouse.
So we fight the heat with power.
All day. Every day.

The power bill never stops.
And if the power goes out, the building gets too hot to use.

There is a better way.
A building can cool itself.
No AC. Just air, water, plants, and the sun.

Here is how it works:

- Windcatcher: a tower catches the wind and sends cool air down to the earth.
- Earth tubes: air comes in through the tower and starts cooling down.
- Cool water channel: the air passes over water. Now it's even cooler.
- Solar chimney: the sun heats it. It pulls hot air up and out of the building.
- Green roof and green walls: plants shade the building and cool the air.

Cool air comes in at the bottom.
Hot air goes out the top.
No machine in the middle.

This is not new.
People in old Persia did this 700 years ago.
They made desert homes much cooler. With no power at all.

What is new? Smart sensors and AI.
They watch the wind and the heat.
They open and close each part on their own.

Old ideas. New tools.

A building that needs power to stay cool is not really designed.
It's just plugged in.

Comment "Academy" and I'll show you how we build cooling into buildings.

Nobody teaches you how to build a green building.

Not at university. Not on the construction site.

Our founder, Moein Nodehi, worked on some of the world's biggest construction projects. That's where he understood how messed up the construction industry really was.

In his office, he was the only one who wanted to build differently.

So he left his job and went around the world looking for green solutions.

After twenty countries, this is what he found:

A building can run four of its own systems:

1 - Water - Catch the rain, treat what goes down the drain, use it again.
2 - Natural Comfort - Catch & store temperatures naturally using basic physics.
3 - Energy - Using solar & wind to provide electricity.
4 - Food - Integrated greenhouses that recycle water and produce fruits and vegetables.

None of this is new. Most of it is, in fact, very ancient.

What is missing is never the idea. It is the detail. The sizing. The drawings. The mistake someone already made, so you don't have to.

That part stays inside the companies that hold it. It does not get taught.

That is the part we spent fifteen years collecting.

The Biotonomy Academy is open from today until Monday, 31 August.

Every day, 5 billion people waste clean water — just to flush their toilets.

The same water we could drink… is used to flush a toilet.

After we flush it, we need to consume energy and chemicals to clean it again.
That makes no sense.

In nature, the water cycle does not work like this.
It is designed to reuse the water — without creating any waste.

So what if our buildings did the same?

There is a smarter way to do this — one that saves money, water, and energy.
And it uses zero chemicals.

Here's how it works:

1️⃣ First, the water goes into a tank where natural bacteria break down the dirty stuff.

2️⃣ Then, it flows through a natural treatment with plants & rocks that clean it even more.

3️⃣ The water goes through a UV filter that makes it comply with local regulations.

Finally, it's used to flush the toilet and irrigate gardens.

By reusing it for flushing toilets, we can save up to 30% of a building's water consumption.

By reusing it for irrigation, we can save another 30 to 60%.

This is a better way to live with water — instead of wasting it.

It's about time for architects and engineers to wake up — and design buildings with closed-loop water systems.

Water isn't the problem — how we treat it is.

This building in Lebanon cools itself, heats itself, and handles its own water.

Most architects and engineers were never taught how.

Our founder Moein wasn't either.

It is not a personal failure. It is just not in the school.

But the projects have changed.

Every month we get calls from people who just won a job with a green facade or a water system, and they don't know where to start.

They can't price it. They can't build it. And they don't know how to keep it alive after year one.

So the work exists. The people who can do it don't.

We have spent 15 years building these. Water reuse, natural cooling and heating, green walls and roofs. Real projects in more than 20 countries.

We already made the mistakes.

That is what Biotonomy Academy teaches. Not theory. The systems, the numbers, the drawings, and what goes wrong on site.

It is for anyone working with buildings and cities. Architects, engineers, builders, developers, owners, city people. You do not need a technical background to follow it.

Doors open Monday, August 24. We only open two or three times a year.

This is the last week to get on the list.

Most people who get into green buildings make the same mistake.

And the reason is that they don't understand this

A building has two parts.

1 - How you build it.
2 - How you run it.

Building it is about 10% of its total impact
— the materials, the footprint, the nature cleared to make room for it.

Running it is the other 90%.
- Heating, cooling, water, waste — for 50 to 100 years.

So where does everyone put their effort? In the 10%!
"Sustainable" materials with a low carbon footprint.

We're not against that — but it doesn't solve the big problem.

You can build with the most "sustainable" materials in the world and still hand over a building that overconsumes water and energy for the next 100 years.

The real impact isn't in what you build it from. It's in how it runs.

Our founder, Moein Nodehi, recorded a video (see link in the comments) with five ways to design a building that runs properly — starting with the one that cuts energy use by up to 80% on its own.

Take a look and tell us which one matters most to you.

18/08/2026

We don’t have a water problem - We have an architectural problem.

Every day we flush clean drinking water down the toilet.

At the same time, 2.2 billion people don't have safe water to drink.

That makes no sense.

At Biotonomy, we follow a better way — nature’s way.
We design buildings that become part of the natural water cycle.

Here is how it works, step by step:

1 - Rain falls on the roof.
2 - It goes into a tank and gets filtered.
3 - You shower and wash with it.
4 - That shower water is reused to flush the toilet.
5 - The toilet water is filtered with plants.
6 - The water is used for irrigation.
7 - Plants drink what is left and breathe it out through their leaves.

It turns into clouds. And the cycle starts again.

Nothing is thrown away. Every drop gets used again, the way nature does it.

This cuts water use by up to 75%. It also keeps dirty water out of rivers and the sea.

We have enough water. We just use it once and throw it away.

We just posted this last year, and hundreds of people asked us the same thing: where do I learn to actually design this?

The answer is our Academy - and it opens next week.

It is where we teach how to design buildings and cities that hold water, cool themselves, and give back more than they take.

Doors open Monday 24 August. This is the last week to join the waiting list.
