Years of lively debates have discussed what the ultimate in sustainability design should look like. Join Michael Pawlyn, British architect and co-author of Flourish, for an exploration into the philosophical aspirations of regenerative design. Michael goes beyond sustainable design in this presentation, offering a paradigmatic plan towards regenerative design that draws from natural and cultural wisdom and highlights practical steps we can take to achieve this crucial new paradigm.
