As the world changes and people’s needs and expectations evolve, how we design for health, wellness and sustainability must evolve accordingly. As designers and architects, we apply robust frameworks and strategies to test our solutions for future flexibility, adaptability and resiliency when designing spaces, communities, and cities.ÌýÌý

Now more than ever, our built environment will be under scrutiny for how it impacts our health. Architects, designers, developers, and real estate investors will need to consider how buildings and spaces can be designed to promote human health, safety, and comfort in our post-pandemic world.ÌýÌý

Finally, as creators of the built environment and champions for sustainable outcomes, we must understand that the climate crisis is a global health crisis. . Biomimicry used to be a philosophical construct to reimagine how we live within the built environment and use strategies found in nature to solve human design challenges. Now, biomimetic design principles can guide design relevancy and resilience to produce a new generation of design that is not only healthy and low impact but beautiful and inspiring.Ìý
