| dc.description.abstract | In a world dominated by the human existence, it is important to acknowledge and respect the natural world by designing for more than just humans. Through seamless integration of the building and landscape, Co-Habitat will create an ecosystem where humans and non-humans can coexist harmoniously. The ultimate goal is to achieve mutualistic symbiosis, in which every species benefits from the ecological relationship network. As a new home for a wildlife rehabilitation organization, the complex will support their mission to mitigate damage to the environment caused by human activities. In addition to meeting program needs, the facility aspires to provide a method of safe observation. This unique aspect of the visitor experience will offer enjoyment as well as education for the public. The project will enhance the organization’s positive impact by channeling principles of meaningful placemaking and incorporating strategies of regenerative design. Co-Habitat challenges the typically anthropocentric focus of buildings and proposes a synergistic approach, in which the built environment forms an inclusive habitat for all beings. | en_US |
