Autor Phillip B. Ro¿s
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 dec 2022
This book presents a holistic integral sustainable design and planning method embedded in the hypothesis of biophilia, our innate connection to nature, used as a platform to chart a biophilic pattern language framework. In A Biophilic Pattern Language for Cities, the author positioned the innate human-nature connection as critical in biophilic design and sustainable city planning solutions.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“In this powerful book, Roös revisits and creatively reinvigorates the ground-breaking pattern language work of Christopher Alexander a half-century ago. This new design imperative moves nature from something simply desirable to something absolutely essential to a flourishing urban life and to achieving a sustainable future.” 
– Timothy Beatley, PhD, Teresa Heinz Professor of Sustainable Communities, School of Architecture, University of Virginia.
“Roös branches out in his own original direction, applying patterns in a holistic manner tied directly to natural systems. His work thus complements other recent work on Biophilia and Patterns.”
– Nikos A. Salingaros, PhD, Professor of Mathematics and Architecture at the University of Texas at San Antonio.

Dr Phillip B. Roös is an academic and architect, designer, artist, writer and philosopher. His work spans a transdisciplinary discourse in the convergence of design, science, art, philosophy and environmental research. Deeply embedded in ecological consciousness, he investigates our innate affiliation to Nature – biophilia – through analysing the phenomena of living structures. His practice is positioned at the intersections of rigorous academic scholarship and applied real-world projects. As a transdisciplinary practitioner, he investigates questions of human consciousness as well as global social and environmental issues. He currently holds the position of Associate Professor in Architecture - Ecological Design at the School of Architecture and Built Environment and is the Director of the Deakin Biophilia Lab, Deakin University.
