This study goes beyond biophilic and biomimetic approaches that limit the relationship with nature in architecture to merely aesthetic or structural representations, presenting a new theoretical proposal that centers on the behavioral patterns of nature: Biosimulation. Supported by interdisciplinary theoretical foundations such as systems theory, autopoiesis, and evolutionary algorithms, this approach is based on the analysis of speculative prototypes developed with AI-supported visual production tools. Prototypes developed within the study, such as Myco-Habitat, Photosynthetic Pavilion, and Coral Shelter, have been evaluated comparatively with structures selected from the real world, and the potential of biosimulation to produce behavioral intelligence, environmental adaptation, and organizational dynamism in architectural design has been questioned. The study contributes to the redefinition of the structure not merely as a form resembling nature, but as a system that responds like nature and can reorganize itself.
