Autodesk sponsors Asknature biomimicry database
Autodesk has announced its sponsorship of the Asknature.org biomimicry database, featuring biology-inspired design strategies.
Architects, designers and engineers can access the free, online public-domain library, organised by function and explained with illustrations and in a language relevant to designers.
Asknature.org is a project of the Biomimicry Institute, founded by author Janine Benyus.
The experts at the Institute describe biomimicry as a science that studies nature's models and then imitates or takes inspiration from these designs and processes to solve human problems.
The site - part manifesto, part search engine, part social network - is a place where innovators and biologists can meet, exchange information and design together.
With a user base of 9 million architects, designers and engineers, Autodesk sees biomimicry as a revolutionary design concept that can help influence better design decisions.
