Task 5 : Video Reflections – Organic Design

Before watching the video i spent most of my time getting ideas , deciding the way of production and choosing which material to use from researching on the internet or reading the books and magazines.. But After watching the video I realized the significance of getting inspiration from nature and using natural materials not from books or magazines.

In the video Ross Lovegrove spoke about the importance of nature in design. Most of the inspirations in his design process came from found materials in nature. Ross Lovegrove emphasizes the form from nature as well as organic materials he normally uses in his design showing the importance of looking into new materials which haven’t been used before. He also believes the forms with the essentials with no unnecessary parts are the best design.

From this video, i have learnt more about how the material and forms can have influence on people's soul and emotion. It also inspired me not to limit my choices of using new materials and forms to create different surprises.
