1. So what if we were
asked to design a natural flow
using these natural patterns?

2. The entire permaculture
community has been identifying
patterns.
There’s a pattern of questioning I like to
use: What? So what? Now what?
Patterns are the “what.” Biomimicry
is the “so what.”
NOW WHAT?

3. Well, let’s look at
places we could use
these patterns.
I’m looking for at least one idea for every
pattern FLOWING out of each of you.
Get it? Flowing?
Look for the flow?
Tee Hee!

4. THE BRANCH PATTERN
• Can you think of a flow that works for
the branch pattern?
• When would you need to collect and
distribute water, air, food or material?
