This article breaks down historic applications of biological design translated into architecture. Although the term “biomimicry” was coined in the mid-20th century, an early example of bio inspired design was displayed at the 1900 Worlds Exposition in Paris. Architect Rene Binet’s Monumental Gate […]
Suckerfish are known for hitchhiking on blue whales. Scientists recently discovered that suckerfish, contrary to previous belief, do not suction themselves to the bodies of blue whales. Instead, they hover above the whales’ skim that forms a low pressure zone that the suckerfish can ride effortlessly. This […]
This article describes the newly emerging practice of biomimicry in digital design. It illustrates the current practices of designers who emulate biology in their work. The Vice President of software design at MentorMe incorporates the Fibonacci sequence into his work because it so often appears in nature. The Fibonacci sequence can […]
