Buildings shouldn’t just reduce harm — they should grow health, joy, and equity. That’s the promise of regenerative, community-led design. #LivingBuildingChallenge

#livingbuildingchallenge “It’s not about delivering a ‘slightly more sustainable’ building … It considers how a building exists in its ecosystem, and how it can be made positive to that ecosystem, rather than neutral or negative” Great article/podcast #NatureBarn
