The present paper deals with possible construction methods of three-dimensional shapes based on the nesting behavior of paper wasps. Paper wasps can construct combs of hexagonal cells with a regular arrangement. This paper describes observation and analysis of such nesting behavior. Observation results show that characteristic movements of antennae and nesting behavior, so called “taxis”, are used in determining how to shape the nest. Construction experiments are conducted to ascertain the relationship between constructed shapes and construction algorithms based on the nesting behavior. The results are as follows : 1. Using base shapes as a guide mark, construction algorithms of threedimensional objects based on the movements of sensors and simple moving rules lead to the construction of similar shapes and different shapes. 2. The movements of antennae and behavior, so called “taxis”, are used in determining how to shape the nest.
