Week 1: At Micro-organism level

An introduction to Biomimicry, along with other Bio-fields (ie: biomimetics, biomorphosism, biophilia etc).  We looked into nature's solutions in thermal, moisture, heating, structural, colour, sensing and regenerative capacities.  The students started on their new assignment, a design challenge inspired by nature to generate new ideas.  Lets see where the research guides them to.
