This book is not just a reflection on sustainability, it is an invitation to change our perspective and transform how we design and inhabit the world. With a critical eye, it addresses the saturation of the term 'sustainable', urging us to rediscover its true meaning: the ability to sustain life without depleting resources or mortgaging the future. From this premise, nature is positioned not only as inspiration, but as mentor and model for redesigning our cities and buildings.

Produktbeschreibung
This book is not just a reflection on sustainability, it is an invitation to change our perspective and transform how we design and inhabit the world. With a critical eye, it addresses the saturation of the term 'sustainable', urging us to rediscover its true meaning: the ability to sustain life without depleting resources or mortgaging the future. From this premise, nature is positioned not only as inspiration, but as mentor and model for redesigning our cities and buildings. The content of these pages leads us to imagine a future in which buildings function as living organisms, breathing, adapting to the environment and generating dynamic balance. In this vision, cities resemble forests: interconnected ecosystems where air, water, energy and waste flow in closed and regenerative circuits, like the roots and mycorrhizae of a forest. The work aims not only to solve technical problems, but to propose a paradigm shift: to look at urban design as an extension of natural systems. With an interdisciplinary approach, the text emphasizes collaboration between architects, biologists, engineers, biotechnologists, designers, humanists and chemists, among many others. This bio-inspired approach reminds us that, after all, we are part of nature, and our future depends on how we choose to learn from it and with it.
