Biomorphism

Biomorphism

Biomorphism comes from the Greek ‘bios’ ( life) and ‘morphe’ (form), describing abstract shapes or images that remind people of living things.

Biomorphism is an artistic design approach that draws inspiration from patterns and forms found in the natural world and living organisms. It involves emulating these organic elements to create aesthetically pleasing and harmonious designs. At its most radical, biomorphism seeks to integrate these naturally occurring shapes into functional objects or devices, seamlessly blending art and functionality. This design philosophy celebrates the beauty and efficiency of nature's creations and endeavours to infuse them into the man-made world.
