Little things make huge differences

BIOMIMICRY.....  This blog talks about biomimicry, what is biomimicry, how it is helpfull and more. But first let's start           
  with what is biomimicry? biomimicry adopts natures solutions and translates it in human engineering.
  but what does it mean? It sees / studies / understands how things work in nature.
 (Animals / trees / birds) not just the form or colour but, how it actually works .
  The function behind it , or why it is the way it is / why it works like that..
  Biomimicry questions it all , it helps us understand things more clearly,
  and imitates it or uses it as an inspiration for Design.
  Theses little things, observations / understandings helped and inspired and made
  huge difference in world in the form of Good Design.
One of the examples is the GECKO CLIMBING FEET which was inspired by a
  gecko feet these reptiles can scale on vertical walls and even hang upside down
  Because of there plump toes are covered in hundreds of microscopic bristles 
  called setae, which generates a kind of electric force known as van der Waals force,
  Strong enough to keep geckos stuck onto surfaces.
