People have been turning to nature for inspiration to help them solve problems for millions of years. From buildings and bridges to materials, medicine, transport, etc the list goes on and on.
Examining the design of nature has aided in the development of almost every aspect of our lives, and most of us – often without realizing – benefit from these inspired revelations several times a day. This design concept is most commonly known as biomimicry.
Designers, scientist, and engineers continue to study the complex structures found in nature to create greener and more efficient products and processes for our homes and lives.
Alternatively you can just take a stroll through your local woodland or countryside and lose yourself in the wonderful shapes, colours and textures that mother nature has created.
Interesting point - in fact even maths mimics the natural world doesn't it with fractals.
