Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This text examines nature's profound influence on designers in all disciplines, including architecture, civil engineering, interior and landscape design, clothes and graphic art. It assesses the ideas of designers who have been inspired by nature, from Leonardo Da Vinci, through William Morris and Charles Rennie Mackintosh, to Alvar Aalto and Frank Gehry. Photographs of their work are used to support the author's interpretation of the philosophy and psychology of design.
