Biornametics — Architecture Inspired by Natural Patterns

A formal discussion about the ornament might have started with Owen Jones work “The Grammar of Ornament” at the end of the 19th century and Jones becoming a well-known English architect and stylist ‘pro ornament’: “From universal testimony of travellers it would appear, that there is scarcely a people, in however early a stage of civilization, with whom the desire for ornament is not a strong instinct.”1
