    Inspired by the elegant form of the Nautilus Shell, the Taiwan Center for Disease Control's BioLab conceals a dangerous riddle within its outer skin. Usually only visible to the naked eye, the structure of the outer skin is laced with geometric patterns that represent the four symbols of the DNA sequence of the dangerous bacteria being studied within. If you’re not in awe of the structure itself, you may catch on to the message that Taiwan is trying to deliver: “Epidemic prevention is a war that we intend to win”....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/taiwans-beautiful-bioshell-center-for-disease-control/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
