Biomimicry

Mimicking nature is an important design tool that can help discover new and inventive ideas. Some of the most groundbreaking inventions of all time has happened because of human kind studying nature and trying to recreate capabilities and powers it may hold.

For this project I have tried to do exactly that, however it has ended up being more of a textile/tactile design. You may think that this bomber jacket-inspired top looks a bit like something a sheep would wear, but this design is actually based on dandelion seeds.
