Research Field Biomimicry

Manifold Installation at the AA Projects Review 2004

‘Biomimicry is when the design and production of materials and structures are modelled on or take the ideas of biological processes and entities.’

Case study 1.0 Aranda Lasch - The Morning Line

My selection criteria was based on:

1. Whether the outcome was interesting, is it plain and simple? Or is it detailed and different?

2. Individuality. How different is it to the original design?

4. Potential. Can I further this design, or is it at its peak? I want to be able to continue exploring an idea, not have the limits reached early on.

I chose Aranda Lasch’s ‘The Morning Line’ as my first biomimicry case study. I chose it because it is interesting and I found there were so many opportunities for adaptation.

There are so many geometries at different scales, it creates an interesting composition, I would like to perhaps use these ideas in my future designs.
