Regenerative Systems Design<\/strong> consists of biologically attuned methods, substances, and assemblies that expand building construction\u2019s standard material palette and increases the environmental performance of architecture. This focus is evident in the work of the School\u2019s Integrated Design Research Lab (IDRL)<\/a>, which advances research in climate-responsive strategies that also improve human health. Courses like Environmental Systems Principles, Building Systems Integration, and Environmental Ethics broaden students\u2019 expertise in this topic. Students may also pursue in-depth studies as part of the M.S. in Architecture\u2014Design Science degree<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strategies for Growing Large-Scale Mycelium Structures. <\/strong>
Fungi-based materials (myco-materials) have been celebrated and experimented with for their architectural and structural potential for over a decade. Jonathan Dessi-Olive’s<\/a> paper describes research applied to assembly strategies for growing large building units and assembling them into efficiently formed wall prototypes.

Blue Architecture<\/strong>
When it comes to water, the architectural design community is working at a level of sophistication and innovation that is about a generation behind where they are with energy. Brook Muller’s<\/a> new book seeks to address that lag through a close look at a series of cases, mostly in the American West.
