ABSTRACT
Human beings, in accordance with nature, have a
tendency to discover and learn from their environ-
ment. Thus, human-made technical developments
sometimes directly result from and synthesize these
observations of nature. In our observation/learning/
designing process, we have experienced adaptation
and developed skills to provide our needs by imitat-
ing, interpreting and using the opportunities of
nature. Consequently, similarities observed between
human-made structures and the structures of
nature are unavoidable.
