The paper explores the potential of the biomorphic approach to context-based design with a focus on special-purpose mobility in the Arctic. The study seeks to contribute to the analytical and conceptual basis for developing the transport component of the Arctic life-support system, i.e., a set of objects and technologies, and knowledge and skills for handling them, allowing a person to survive and comfortably exist in severe environmental conditions. The central argument is that the system should incorporate structural components that possess not only technical but also artistic and emotional characteristics that align with the geographic (environmental and climatic), socio-cultural, and psychological peculiarities of use. This can be achieved by drawing inspiration from local nature. We probe the visual image of "soft military presence" using two case studies in different parts of the Russian Arctic: the Yamal and Chukchi peninsulas.
本文探讨了生物形态方法在基于环境的设计中的潜力，重点关注北极地区的特殊用途机动性。该研究旨在为开发北极生命支持系统的运输组件奠定分析和概念基础，即一套物体和技术以及操作它们的知识和技能，使人能够在恶劣环境条件下生存并舒适地生活。核心观点是，该系统应纳入不仅具有技术特征，还具有艺术和情感特征的结构组件，这些特征要与使用的地理（环境和气候）、社会文化及心理特点相契合。这可以通过从当地自然中汲取灵感来实现。我们利用俄罗斯北极地区不同部分的两个案例研究——亚马尔半岛和楚科奇半岛，探究“柔和军事存在”的视觉形象。
