CONCEPT BIOMIMICRY looks to nature and natural systems for inspiration.

ORIGAMI is the art of folding paper geometrically to produce flexible designs.

Geometry is the mathematical science of shape, i.e. FORM.

• Historical precedent - Ancient Japanese art ORIGAMI. • Function –Multifunctional (storage, sitting, collapsible canopy) BIO-MIMICKING of plant cell structure for comfort.

• Material - Thermoplastics (PLA i.e. GREEN PLASTIC) • Fabrication processes – Digital 3D PRINTING, additive process thus, no waste of material.

• Environmental Aspect– PLA is Biodegradable and RECYCLABLE. Whole unit is entirely made up of single material which makes it easy to recycle.

• Surrounding context - the form of the units is limited only by the IMAGINATION of the user. creating a different experience for user each time.

Transforms as per the need of the user.
