This session will explore the relationships between people and nature through a discussion of Biophilia and Biomimicry in the built environment. What are their crossovers as pathways to increase the human | nature connection? How does one use nature’s principles as a model of inspiration and efficiency for resilient design strategies? We will hear from a Bay Area commercial project that is using Biophila and connectivity to nature as a key objective. We will analyze how those connections lead to Net Positive solutions through various case studies that demonstrate applied examples of nature’s principles translated into design solutions.
