Greetings colleagues, I am currently conducting research on design thinking, service design and meta design for my PhD, with a focus on sustainability. I have recently begun to investigate the application of biomimicry within these fields of practice and research. I am aware of research surrounding biomimicry for designing material artefacts, but am attempting to source information and examples of biomimic research that has been adopted for the aid and/or resolution of intangible (for use of a better word) "wicked" problems - or in strategic fields of research and practice. A superficial scan of current research shows some progress has been made within business + organisational design- however i am particularly interested in examples from fields of service/systems and design thinking. I will gratefully appreciate any research and advice that can be offered on this topic, or which more broadly relates to the adoption of biomimic design for intangible problems and (ideally, sustainable) organisational solutions.
