Q1. PRACTICAL CHALLENGE DTI “INSPIRED BY NATURE” – Designing a Sustainable Product Using Biomimicry Nature has developed remarkable solutions to problems such as temperature control, water conservation, protection, movement, strength, energy efficiency and waste reduction. Organisms and natural systems have evolved to solve these challenges efficiently using minimum resources. For example, the lotus leaf has a water-repellent surface, termite mounds maintain temperature through natural ventilation, honeycombs provide strength using minimal material, and shark skin has a surface structure that reduces resistance in water. As Design Thinkers, your task is to observe a problem in everyday life, study how nature solves a similar problem, and develop an innovative and sustainable product inspired by a natural model or process. Design Challenge How might we use biomimicry to design a sustainable product or solution that solves an everyday human pr...
