in the naad
What if we could build homes in hours—not months? What if shelter could be beautiful, fast, low-cost, and resilient—and modeled after nature? In this episode of In the Naad, Harmanjot sits down with construction technologist, architect, and CEO Nicolò Bini, son of visionary Dante Bini, to explore Binishells—inflatable, monolithic domes that challenge everything we think we know about architecture, construction, and humanitarian design. They talk about the history of shelter, the architectural inefficiencies that emerged from the post-war urge to build—not to meet human or ecological needs, but to showcase technological potential, designing for a collapsing climate, and what it means to create structures that are not just functional—but psychologically nourishing, spiritually coherent, and ecologically intelligent. From refugee camps to luxury eco-homes, this conversation bridges deep history with near-future needs. It’s not just shelter—it’s a blueprint for a new way of living on Earth.
