Bioinspired design

Bioinspired design is an approach in which designers and engineers look to nature for inspiration to solve human challenges. By studying how organisms have adapted to their environments, they can mimic efficient processes and structures found in nature. For example, the way a lotus leaf repels water has inspired self-cleaning surfaces, and the structure of bird wings has influenced airplane design. This method fosters innovation and sustainability, leading to solutions that are often more efficient, effective, and eco-friendly by learning from millions of years of evolution.
