Daffodils - #31

B+W Architecture - July 2011 Challenge

I have left my FAVOURITE B+W Architecture for last

Architects can learn by studying daffodils:
Flexibility reduces drag: The flowers of daffodils twist in the wind, reducing drag because of their torsional flexibility due to stem non-circularity.

So through studying daffodils architects are incorporating materials with torsional flexibility into building designs and structures

Wow, who knew? Then I'm thinking daffodils in July? Followed by a whack to the forehead, early spring on the opposite end of the planet.
