1 Potential application of MushRoom as outdoor safety tents for COVID hangout use.

Inspired by the growing mechanism of the indusium and stalk structure of stinkhorn mushrooms, we aim to create an architectural biomimicry that could be used as portable and self-deployable emergency shelter and other architectural spaces at different scales, such as outdoor safety tent for Covid-19 protection, recyclable exhibition pavilion, etc.
