Abstract
Structures in the nature motivate innovation in architectural and engineering disciplines in terms of aesthetical, functional and structural advantages. Using efficient, lightweight structural forms similar to those in nature reduces material and energy usage and waste amount. In this sense, it can be clearly seen that based on learning from nature in relation to meeting gradually increasing and changing requirements through limited resources and creating modern structural designs, biomimicry will provide much more contribution on architecture and related fields. In this direction, in the study based on comprehensive literature research, lots of varying living organisms in the nature have been analyzed in terms of structure; architectural structures developed by inspiring from natural structures have been sampled and influences of solutions inspired from nature on architectural environment have been focused.
