The Living Building Challenge (LBC) is designed to encourage the development of buildings that have a net positive benefit to their environment. To date, most certified Living buildings are low rise buildings outside of high density urban areas.
How we can achieve the aims of the LBC in New York City while maintaining high density and intensity of use. Hear from Clare Miflin, Architect and Biomimic, how enlarging the boundaries of consideration and applying biomimicry could help cities to function like vibrant diverse and resilient ecosystems.
