Today, buildings are the highest single contributors to anthropogenic climate change accounting for approximately 45% of the world’s current energy consumption. The statistical projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimate that new technology advancements in buildings’ energy efficiency could possibly reduce the global carbon emission up to 30% by 2030. However, it is expected that emerging global economies will increase in exponential values the consumption of energy, water consumption and toxic emissions due to the unforeseen density and scale of new constructions. The upcoming building projects will have to take over the pressing responsibility of adopting new innovative building technologies to reduce the increasing pressure on eco-systems. It is believed that in this venture, the architecture will shift into new energy self-generation and material degradability to further approximate autotrophic built environments designed to balance resources inputs and outputs. 
This proposal is written to propose the opportunity of developing an internal (Part A) and external membrane system (Part B) through which live (algae/lichen) and synthetic matter integration can process matter. This integration of live and synthetic matter can significantly contribute to the reduction of energy consumption making it an eco-friendly project. Detox Tower opens a new advancement where through multi-scalar material interdependencies a new micro scale transformation process can be initiated on the upcoming new generation building systems. These new building systems will serve as opportunities for live matter integration in skyscrapers making them have a sustainable architecture. This proposal is aimed at analyzing and discussing new methods to control energy exchange, storage and processing of matter through microscale actuation that deploys bio-synthetic building integration in high rise towers providing human comfort internally and externally. 
This innovation can open up new unforeseen opportunities and aim for sustainable architecture efficiency. Reactive/adaptable structural systems that enable air detoxification and light transmission control, a radically new programmatic occupation of Residential Skyscrapers trough a flexible floor/wall system can be implemented. Building owners can purchase a lot of sky volume equivalent to ground space to build their skyscrapers and they can create their own layouts that change with time through an expansive/contractile composite (elastomer/thermoplastic) floor/wall system. This new innovation of self-regulation based on micro engineering principles opens up new inhabitation opportunities by ensuring bioclimatic synergy (air detoxification/light transmission control.
