Bio 3.0 Tower

Bio 3.0 is a design proposal for an innovative mixed-use office complex owned by Google and located in Ikeja, Lagos. Inspired by the concept of an insect cocoon, the project symbolizes the growth and development of creative ideas, offering co-working spaces that foster collaboration among small businesses as well as lettable spaces for medium-sized establishments. The design reflects Google’s culture within the socio-economic context of Lagos through a three-part nature-inspired philosophy: Biomorphism—drawing form from nature, Biomimicry—adapting nature’s problem-solving strategies, and Bioutilization—leveraging natural elements to enhance building performance. This vision is captured in a striking nighttime render, contrasting the building against its surroundings and evoking a calm close to a long day of innovation and work.
