Summary:The future manufacturing for the recirculation-based society needs to take into consideration environmental impact for the earth and functions for people simultaneously. The authors have investigated nature mimetic functional indoor housing materials. In this paper, two examples for saving energy and making comfortable space were introduced. One is anti-stain surface treatments for ceramic tile using hydrophilic nanoparticles, resulting in the decrease of the housekeeping energy. The other are porous ceramic materials to save air conditioning energy, which are the humidity control ceramic tile using mesoporous soil and the vacuum insulation panels using nanoporous silica particles.
