What is Function? With Dr. Dayna Baumeister
Description
In biomimicry, function is the bridge between nature and design. We ultimately want to ask "How does Nature ___?" in order to match our challenge and context with nature's genius range of strategies for the same challenge. In this new series, we will be exploring what function is and why it's important. Dr. Dayna Baumeister is a global leader in the biomimicry space: she is the Co-Founder of Biomimicry 3.8, the Co-Director at ASU's Biomimicry Center, author of the Biomimicry Resource Handbook, speaker, teacher, and force of nature. Dr. Baumeister gives an overview of function as it relates to biomimicry and showcases how it's used with her projects for clients in the consulting realm and beyond. We share insights for how to start thinking like a biomimic, why it's so important to find the right function, and the power of a functional perspective.
