Abstract: 
Designers are always looking for inspiration for their designs, and many disciplines use natural inspiration to innovate, a practice often referred to as " biomimicry ". This paper reviews the existing literature on biomimetic design thinking, discusses the use of biomimicry as an auxiliary tool for visual designers' creative development, and puts forward three directions and suggestions for the visual design of biomimicry tools. This provides visual designers and students with a new thinking to expand the space for creative development.
