Ten Inventions That Borrowed Their Best Ideas From Nature
Interface Entropy Carpet Tiles | The Forest Floor
Leaves, stones and twigs do not repeat in a perfect grid, yet a forest floor still feels coherent. Interface applied that observation to Entropy carpet tiles, allowing differences in pattern and color to become part of the design. Tiles can be placed non-directionally and replaced individually without demanding an exact visual match. This commercial flooring product borrows nature’s tolerance for variation, showing that biomimicry can influence a system’s organization as much as an object’s shape.
