Designed from Nature "Nightlife"

One of my favorite organizations reaches out in collaboration for yet another great-looking event.  Check out the Biomimicry Institute at the Cal Academy of Sciences on October 13!


From our Biomimicry friends:

Great design often takes cues from nature— get your hands on real products inspired by natural forms and speak to the folks at Ask Nature and the Biomimicry Institute. Enjoy stilt walking and juggling inspired by Cirque du Soleil’s latest nature-themed show TOTEM; catch a screening of biomimicry documentary Second Nature; and see how current design students from UC Berkeley and the University of Calgary are incorporating biomimicry into their projects. Music by BASSYX in the East Pavilion.   Learn more »
