Biomimicry is often described as innovation inspired by nature. In the sandbox, we look at it as a practice: how ecological principles actually inform design choices, organisational thinking, and economic structures.
As ecological pressures intensify, learning with - not just drawing inspiration from it - becomes a concrete design question. It also quietly asks us: what changes when we treat living systems not as resources, but as teachers and translate their ecological principles into our human systems?
In this dialogue, we explore biomimicry as an applied approach: not just how it works, but also how it is evolving, its successes and challenges, and of course emerging questions. And what this reveals about our current capacity to co-create with the more-than-human world.
The sandbox organises learning sessions aimed at practitioners, while covering a different approach or praxis for Co-creation with the More-than-Human world each month.
