	Bio-design is often a term more commonly associated to the field of medicine, and involves the implementation of inventions and interventions using biomedical technologies, sometimes referred to as biotechnologies. There are however also wider uses and applications of the term (at times interchangeable with biomimicry) in the field of construction products, textiles, bio-plastics and so forth. Biodesign, might be considered as differing from biomimicry in that it seeks not only derive inspiration from and emulate natures products, but also looks to incorporate living (or perhaps organic) materials into the design of products.

	To some extent, some of the earliest traditional products might be be considered as biodesign in that they primarily consisted of natural or organic based materials, for example the production of lime from the burning of seashells or the manufacture of traditional paints using natural ingredients. However today biodesign extends beyond the remit of natural materials to the manipulation of organic materials at the biological level, to create innovative new and often lower impact products (sometime referred to as or in relation to biomimicry). Below are some recent examples that might be considered as belonging to the field of biodesign:		To some extent, some of the earliest traditional products might be be considered as biodesign in that they primarily consisted of natural or organic based materials, for example the production of lime from the burning of seashells or the manufacture of traditional paints using natural ingredients.

Bio-design is often a term more commonly associated to the field of medicine, and involves the implementation of inventions and interventions using biomedical technologies, sometimes referred to as biotechnologies. There are however also wider uses and applications of the term somes interchangeable with biomimicry in the field of construction products, textiles, bioplastics and so forth. Biodesign, might be as differing from biomimicry in that it seeks not only derive inspiration from and emulate natures products, but also looks to incorporate living or organic materials into the design of products.

One might say that some early often traditional products could be considered as biodesign, for example the production of lime from the burning of seashells. Some of the most recent examples of biodesign (which may by some be referred to as or in relation to biomimicry) might be:
