From Indoor Rainforests to Green Roofs: Designing for the Future
TVO Nature of Design
Jamie Miller was featured on TVO’s Nature of Design docuseries. This series explores the intersection of nature and design, highlighting the potential of biophilic design and biomimicry to enhance our well-being.
As we spend most of our lives indoors, the future of design lies in seamlessly integrating nature into our built environments. This episode delves into the exciting possibilities of biophilic design and biomimicry, and how they can shape the future of architecture and interior design.
“Biomimicry is the conscious emulation of nature’s genius. It’s velcro, which is inspired by burs that stuck to an engineer’s pants. It’s a wind turbine blade that copied humpback whale fins, so it’s looking at nature as a design lens. It’s a way of looking at the world and realizing the genius of nature and how it could teach us how to build and design on this planet.”
