Defined as “a love of the living world,” biophilia starts with accepting Einstein’s invitation to “Look! Look! Deep into nature [to] understand everything.” For millennia, humans have turned to nature in our quest for health, healing, and survival. Over the past century, however, we seem to have shunned nature-based solutions in favor of high-tech solutions. While we are reaping the benefits of many of these technological advances, we also see their limitations and dire unintended consequences. With the future of our species at stake, we are witnessing a renewed interest in the wisdom of nature to restore balance. This session is an opportunity to take a closer look at the frameworks that nature provides to help design professionals solve complex issues in the built environment. Organic design is not a trend or style. It is design based on programmatic needs of healing modalities. It’s about turning to nature for cues on how to design healthy buildings that promote all life forms by restoring symbiosis between our built environment and the natural ecosystems within which it is embedded.

For most of history, mankind has lived in harmony with the rhythm of nature. However, Americans have evolved into a nation that spends 90% of its time isolated indoors. The result of this disconnect has proven to impact on both physical and mental health.
This course will examine the use of architecture, accessibility, lighting and finish materials to bring the outdoors to the interior space. Furthermore, we will consider how the principles of interior design can be applied to the outdoors. We will examine how blurring the line between indoor and outdoor spaces can contribute to a safer, healthier and more universal beautiful environment.

America has changed…and stayed the same. Sometimes the old is new again. But sometimes it is like nothing before. Where we are living, who we are living with and how we are living has recently been impacted by major shifts in our society, our culture most recently by pandemic. And the design for this new reality is shifting too. During this course you will explore different ways that Home is being Redefined in response to the Changes in our Society and how new priorities for safety, wellness and accessibility will be driving residential design in new directions.

Can the structures and spaces we create actually make people happier?
New fields of scientific research are proving that they do. Learn about the newest research that studies how the brain reacts and responds to the world around it and how you can use this information to design spaces that can measurably create a heightened sense of wellbeing, a greater sense of safety, and even make people physically and mentally healthier. All of which can improve their Happiness…by Design.

While color preference may drive residential interiors, it is insufficient for most contract applications... Yet many clients expect designers to yield to preference alone, and designers often must rely entirely on experience and intuition to avoid making serious color mistakes. This course reinforces what you already know about the use of color, and gives you the words and data to back it up. Learn how color affects - in context - emotion and behavior, physiology, and health and well-being.

"Design for a Complex World – Challenges in Practice and Education" is founded on the belief that the forces of globalization that have affected design practice for decades have, in recent years, manifested themselves in design education as well. This work considers the social and environmental implications and challenges facing designers of buildings, cities and landscapes from the position of practitioners, educators and authors from ten countries across six continents, Australia, East Germany, the UK, the US, Mexico, Hong Kong, Finland, Central India, Greece and South Africa.

"Design for Mental and Behavioral Health" summarizes design principles and design research for individuals who are intending to design new mental and behavioural health facilities and those wishing to evaluate the quality of their existing facilities. The authors discuss mental and behavioural health systems, design guidelines, design research and existing standards, and provide examples of best practice. As behavioural and mental health populations vary in their needs, the primary focus is limited to environments that support acute care, outpatient and emergency care, residential care, veterans, pediatric patients, and the treatment of chemical dependency.

"Sustainable Design: A Critical Guide" navigates the vast array of issues related to sustainability in clear and helpful language and presents a concise, well-illustrated overview of the most important techniques available for reducing energy and resource footprints along with the professional context for their use. In addition to tackling the discipline's ethical responsibilities, each chapter takes on specific considerations such as rainwater harvesting, gray-water recycling, passive heating techniques, green roofs, wind energy, daylighting, indoor air quality, material evaluation, and green building certification programs. Grounded in the three Rs of environmentalism: reduce, reuse, and recycle, Sustainable Design encompasses a critical fourth R: rethink.

How can we adequately provide housing when disaster strikes, whether that disaster is weather related, like hurricanes, floods, and droughts, happens in a matter of minutes from an earthquake or tsunami, through a slow process like rising sea levels, or is the result of civil disorder or poverty? There is an urgent need for safe, sustainable housing designs that are cheap to build, environmentally friendly, and hardy enough to withstand severe environmental conditions. Not only is there climate change to contend with, but there are millions of people, right now, who do not have safe or adequate housing. “Urgent Architecture” showcases 40 successful emergency and long-term housing projects that are quickly deployable, affordable, and sustainable.

What is a Net Zero Energy Building and why should you care?
Well for one, new federal mandates will be coming into play very soon that will create enormous changes. Also, global demand for energy is rising at exponential rates as it becomes even more scarce and expensive.
Net zero design allows you to create buildings that have lower energy demands and can generate their own energy requirements on site. Sounds great right? This course will give you some of the basics for how to go about adding net zero features to your projects to create better structures, happier clients and a better world.
