Wavy-shaped homes could limit hurricane wind damage

New research suggests buildings with wave-shaped, curved designs can significantly reduce damage from hurricane-force winds, compared with traditional boxy homes. The rounded profiles help wind flow around structures instead of building up pressure against flat walls, potentially lowering destruction during major storms as climate change makes hurricanes more intense.
Why now: Hurricane season and increasingly severe storms are driving interest in more resilient home designs.
