Humans can neither thrive nor live without wildlife. Although sustainability became a central architectural mantra of the profession in the 1990s, the transition to eco-mimetic and wildlife sensitive design remains challenging today. Integrating development with ecological systems, especially in urban and suburban areas, sits at the heart of any viable green initiative.

In this talk, ZLI Executive Director James Karl Fischer PhD RIBA will review the importance of ecological habitat for animals, identify key points of architecture affecting ecological habitats, and outline actionable biodiversity-loss mitigating planning steps that pursue bird-friendly design, natural light leadership and wildlife provisioning.
