BIOPHILIC DESIGN
WORKSHOP ATTENDEES
Workshop attendees then had an opportunity to put theory
into practice by diving into the conceptual design of a either
green roof or an atrium space. Trace paper, markers, colored
pencils and tape were provided - everything a creative heart could
desire. While both spaces were initially void of life, over the next
few hours the conceptual green roofs were teaming with spaces
for people to gather, vine covered trellises providing prospect and
refuge, flower and vegetable gardens, walking and jogging paths,
beehives, bird habitats, and endless opportunities to watch sunrises and sunsets. The atrium space fostered a sense of community
as the heart and soul of the structure, connecting people to
nature and to each other, opening up to the sky, with the sounds
and smell of water features, dynamic patterns of light streaming
through leaves, tendrils of vegetation, and indoor park spaces.
Once the sketches were complete, the attendees presented
their concepts to the whole group. Biophilic workshops allow us
to pause and consider how to design in conjunction with nature,
to use technology as a tool to further connect us with natural
systems and processes rather than separate us from them, to celebrate nature's brilliance, its power to heal and to inspire. I look
forward to leading another biophilic workshop at the upcoming
CitiesAlive conference in Brooklyn in September and hope you
will be able to join us.
