Energy efficiency in the realm of architecture generally is centered around the performance of building assemblies. The embodied energy of building materials has emerged more recently in the measurement of life cycle assessment (LCA). The BacTerra research project seeks to harness the biological process of calcium carbonate precipitation in the microscopic world to increase the structural performance of building materials at larger scales. The project leverages expertise from the design world and the capabilities of biological researchers to formulate materials which synthesize the abiotic and biotic worlds
