Seven Regenerative Design Principles to Change our Cities

Level Beginner
Duration 5 minutes

Imagine a building that restores and regenerates natural systems and even metabolises like a living organism. No longer a wild daydream, the concept of regenerative design is starting to flourish in the face of the biodiversity crisis and climate change. Its application, however, requires a major shift in thinking.

This course presents seven revolutionary regenerative design principles to guide the way.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, you should be able to:

• Learn how regenerative design goes beyond sustainability by restoring and enhancing natural ecosystems through principles like resource efficiency, ecosystem services, and systems thinking
• Explain how circular economy approaches, blue-green infrastructure and bio-inspired design can create buildings that contribute positively to their environment
• Identify how buildings can mimic and integrate with natural systems to improve resilience, reduce pollution, and support biodiversity
