Biomimicry


I'm a science geek at heart. Always have been. I found these articles today on biomimicry and thought some of you might find them interesting. Biomimicry can be described as finding a way to make things more efficient by looking at counterparts in nature. One of these articles, Mercedes takes a look at the box fish, a fisht that doesn't look streamlined at first glance, and uses some of the same "design" to create a concept car with amazing results. Enjoy!
