Throughout history, trees have been signiŞcant for mankind, being the preferred choice in the provision of many needs, from hea=ng to sheltering. Observa=ons of tree-like structures led man to gain knowledge in new construc=onal methods and structural systems to sa=sfy their needs. Therefore it is possible claim that, trees are among the structural elements frequently seen in the history of architecture, receives par=cular aoen=on from designers for whom nature is a source of inspira=on. Foremost, trees are structural models for designers that are beyond branching paoerns/ornamenta=ons used in architectural decora=ons. Therefore when historical architecture is examined, a very deep and developed intui=ve knowledge of construc=on becomes visible. In the tree, nature has presented the concept of growth and mul=plica=on in which the sequence of trunk, branch, leaflets, and leaves exemplify paoerns which are very similar to those governing architectural orders. In this study, trees which are seen as source of inspira=on for form Şnding studies in architecture and learning act within architecture-analogy-metaphor rela=onship have been inves=gated. In the conducted literature survey, “historical development and classiŞca=on of tree-like structures” is conceptualized; and the difference between inspiring by nature and learning from nature is discussed with selected examples
