4.9/5 (29080 ratings)

Description:In a world now forced to address the issues of sustainability, environmental impact, and the widespread pollution of land and oceans with manmade materials, alternative resources must be considered for the future of the planet. A vast array of natural materials are available throughout the world with properties that are often superior to the manmade alternatives. Designing with Natural Materials has been written to fill the gap between the current scientific knowledge of the use of natural materials and product design, acting as a bridge between the two disciplines.The book serves as an introduction to natural materials within the context of design. The chapters include case studies, research, and a historical perspective. It develops ideas of designing with natural materials in specific areas and looks to the future of new biobased materials and how these will influence design.　The work offers insight to designers of biobased materials across a range of different design disciplines whilst also providing insight to scientists on the process of design, production, and the needs of a material beyond those traditionally analyzed in the laboratory.　The final chapters touch on the use of bioinspiration and biomimicry in the development and use of biobased materials and how in the future natural design will influence both the material design and future products.The book will be of interest to engineers, scientific researchers, professional designers, students, those working in industry who are considering using Natural Materials as an alternative to current unsustainable options, and anyone who has an interest in the subject and features:Case studies of commercial uses of Natural MaterialsChapters from designers, businesses. and academicsAn appeal to a wide audience: anyone working with, in, or having an interest in Natural MaterialsWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
