In today's world the amount of design examples generated by computa=onal methods are increasing every day. Especially it is very signiŞcant to study the design opportuni=es that nature offers for humans considering its capabili=es which help to solve human problems in aesthe=c, economical and sustainable way together with the help of computa=onal methods that offer engaging design solu=ons. Nature has =me-tested forms, structures and solu=ons all around us, and Biomimesis is the study and applica=on of natural solu=ons to design challenges through research and design, this ar=cle seeks to answer two ques=ons: what is biomime=c design principles and how can it beneŞt the Şeld of industrial design par=cularly urban furniture design? This ar=cle examined the rela=onship between biomime=c design principles and designing the urban furniture with parametric modelling. To show how biomime=c design principles being used by architects and designers some case studies included in this ar=cle. U=lizing parametric methods and tools, a design proposal was created to prove that the use of the natural characteris=cs organism, behaviour, and ecosystem and natural typology form, construc=on, material, process, func=on in designing urban furniture will improve the efficiency and expression of architectural objects in terms of sustainable, aesthe=c and economic design ways. Considering the implica=ons of biomimicry for solving human problems, this research aims to incorporate this approach into the design process of urban furniture and to create ergonomic public place in urban areas for temporary relaxing and for mee=ng points of people
