Bio-Integrated Mycelium Pavillions

Seoul-based Yong Ju Lee Architecture has created Mycelial Hut, an experimental pavilion exploring mycelium as a sustainable building material. The project combines robotic 3D printing with biological growth, resulting in a structural design fitted with a wooden frame for stability, wrapped in mycelium panels grown inside custom 3D-printed molds and shaped by robotic arms. The team tested multiple mycelium mixtures for growth rate, density, and structural strength before finalizing the panels.

Installed on SeoulTech’s campus in partnership with the Robotic Fabrication Studio at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, the pavilion invites visitors to envision buildings as living, decomposable structures, grown from and integrated with their environment.
