A requirement for this project is that our design must mimic bio-nature-ecosystem, by form and function of a natural system. So, the idea of focus is to, find out "what would nature do here?" By refering to how the natural-organism would solve diffulties in storage system in a home.
Sustainibility is also the focus in our design. To employ sustainable usage of materials and manufacturing processes.
In the first lecture we were presented with terminologies of Biomorphic and Biomimicry. And examples of existing designs were shown to students and to provide us ideas how current designs took inspiration from the natural-living-beings. Such as, the composition and dimensional form of a sunflower and it's bio-behavioural response to the Sun.,was inspired to develop this solar-energy-system.
Because mankind depend on man-made things for survival and while we create things to benefit ourselves, but at a cost of the degrading the natural environment when it comes down to forestry, mining, oil pumping, carbon emission from our transport system and manufacuring.
So it has become increasingly important to the point designers need to come up with solutions with designs that incorporate sustainable efficiency, e.g. solar, wind-energy harvesting system; to create a better relationship between man and nature.
