Description
Summary:One of human’s basic needs is to interact and affiliate with nature and living organisms such as animals and plants. Minimal interaction with nature gives positive impacts on human physically and psychologically. This kind of tendency on human behaviour is called ‘biophilia’. For instance, the urban environment has ‘green open space’, or usually called ‘city park’, as a semi-natural representation of a forest in purpose to fulfil human’s needs of recreation and refreshment. Biophilia is implemented with the help of technological nature through various approaches: biomimicry, bioutilization, and biomorphic; which gives similar effect as nature does to human’s physical and psychological condition while those approaches are combined. The biomorphic approach plays an important role in psychological impact that comes from the aesthetic impression of natural forms. The imitation of organic shapes and motifs of natural objects is a component key of biophilic design. Morpho butterfly is one of the butterfly species that has wing characteristics that emit iridescent blue created from nanostructures on the wings, without any pigment on the wings surface. This structure is imitated by a biomorphic approach to be applied to fashion products with resin material using structural design techniques. Biomorphic structure of the Morpho butterfly wings is one of the manifestations of biophilia through the aesthetics presented in functional products.
