Background Sustainable Architecture

Biophilic Design 

Elements

Positive Development

Design for Eco‐services‐ Janis Birkeland

Biophilia

humans possess an evolutionary affinity for nature and an innate need to affiliate with life and lifelike processes 

‐ EO Wilson

Biomimicry Ecosystem biomimetic theory‐Maibritt Pederzen Zari

Ecosystem Functions and 

Services

Aims & Objectives

Q.1 How do Biophilic Design Elements compare to each other on the basis of their ability to provide Ecosystem Services?

Q.2 How to determine and prescribe appropriate quantities of Biophilic Design Elements for use in urban landscapes?

Method

Q.1 How to select Biophilic Design Elements for urban landscapes on the basis of their ability to  provide Ecosystem Services?

goods and services that benefit both Nature and humanity and constitute ecosystem services (and ecology) provided by natural systems 

Eco‐services

‘integration of natural systems with the existing built environment to increase the ecological base (life‐support functions)

Design for Eco‐

services

‘ecological space’ – indoor or outdoor areas that are designed to provide eco‐services. 

Ecological Space

Thumb ‐rule

‘ideal’ minimum amount of eco‐services:  cubic area of eco‐services 

= the floor area of the building.”
