| Sommario/riassunto: | “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. 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. 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. |
