Designing with Context: Biomimicry, Biophilia, and the Eco-Centric Model
Eco-centric design - deciphering how biomimicry and biophilic designs can enhance architecture and the built environment. In this frontier of design thinking, we focus on how context, building, and occupant can become co-creators in a regenerative system.
THE LIVING STORY ™
The Living Story is a unique, holistic, pre-design methodology. It was developed from Jamie Miller’s phd research in systems-level biomimicry and on how to create resilient and regenerative designs. This outlines the basic philosophy of the Living Story through practical applications.
Regenerative Design: Measuring Ecological Performance to Reconnect with Nature
For too long, human design has treated nature as something separate—a canvas to control, manipulate, and dictate rather than a living system we belong to. But what if we designed with the understanding that we are nature? Our breath feeds the trees, our bodies return to nourish the soil, and yet our buildings and cities remain disconnected, consuming resources rather than contributing to the ecosystems they inhabit.
