| dc.description.abstract | Citing the world’s current rate of natural resource use, there
will be little left of the world that is natural within a generation. The current cycle of environmental degradation is so extreme that the natural environment can no longer keep up with the built environment’s demand. This thesis explores the way in which designers shape and create the built environment in an attempt to find an alternate solution. The way in which designers address the built environment must change. This thesis explores a solution
where the built environment actually regenerates the human
condition. If this kind of built environment is created, then the
current human degradation can be stopped and even reversed. This would create a built and natural environment that is not only sustainable but also regenerated. This is a world where the built and natural environment are no longer separate or competing but instead are at peace with one another, coexisting and interdependent; blending into one whole environment.
