A spiration sets the level of sustainability in a building project. Green construction often focuses on reducing environmental harm through energy efficiency, water conservation, better air quality and alternative power. Regenerative design aims even higher. It focuses on reversing, rather than limiting, and making a building part of a larger whole, where ecosystems can regenerate. It's rather revolutionary and an all-in response to climate change. Though discussed for more than a decade, this paradigm is taking root in niche consultancies, select projects and design competitions, and within curricula for building design and construction. Regenesis Group Inc., Santa Fe, N.M., is a consultancy that promotes regenerative design in buildings, land use and community planning projects.
