OUR VISION

Designing for & with your community. Together, architecture professionals, civic leaders, and the public can transform the day-to-day practice of architecture to achieve a zero-carbon, resilient, healthy, just, and equitable built environment.

Regenerative design asks architects to do three things: Ensure that each project benefits and transforms the surrounding socioeconomic and ecological systems; align stakeholders to accomplishing those transformations; and explore how teams can develop value-adding processes that continue to indefinitely serve stakeholders beyond the project building and site.

Essentially, it’s about using the built environment as an instrument for enabling larger living systems to thrive by thinking big picture—what is it our clients care deeply about beyond the building?”

To begin the regenerative design process, architects must expand their thinking beyond a site’s physical boundaries, working to ensure each project benefits the surrounding community and environment through reciprocal relationships.
