Hi, I’m Ulla,
I’m a designer and sustainability consultant, and I’m thrilled you’re interested in the course.
Why did I develop this course?
I created this course to make Biomimicry more accessible and promote sustainable solutions in various fields.
My love for nature and creative design led me to my profession, but the awareness of environmental destruction through our product design left me uneasy.
I decided to pursue a Master’s in Environmental Education and discovered how nature uniquely inspired my creativity during my work in a botanical garden in Canada.
Biomimicry opened up a new concept: Instead of exploiting nature to produce new products, I can learn from it.
Fascinated by the efficiency and beauty of natural solutions optimized over billions of years, I pursued a distance learning program in Biomimicry. In this program, I deepened my knowledge and enthusiasm for transferring biological principles to human design processes.
The basic idea is that everything surrounding us in nature has had a very long Research & Development time – over 3.8 billion years – and has proven to be functional. Solutions from nature are often much more efficient than human-made materials and products; for example, spider silk is four times stronger than a steel thread of the same dimension and can be stretched three times without breaking.
The best part is that all of nature’s solutions contribute to a healthy planet, not its destruction.
This idea makes me optimistic – we are surrounded by the most fantastic, sustainable design solutions. We can apply them to our questions, developing sustainable, regenerative solutions in various fields, from product design and architecture to organizational development and artificial intelligence.
To make Biomimicry more accessible to others, I have developed this 30-day email course with an inspiring workbook.
Are you joining the discovery journey?
Do you have any further questions?
Do you have to be a biologist or designer to learn Biomimicry?
No, anyone can use Biomimicry, regardless of prior knowledge or education. The only requirement is the motivation to learn something new and engage with nature as a mentor.
Can you take the course without any prior knowledge?
Yes, it is a beginner’s course, no prior knowledge is required.
I don't know if the course is what I'm looking for.
