Designing With Nature
We are not separate from our environment, we depend on it every day to sustain our lives. This workshop series is focused on how our environment can become more sustainable with our every creative decision. We as individuals, groups, and local communities can create a better world by understanding the founding principles of sustainable design and how they can impact our creative process and foster a more vibrant and resilient world for all of us to live in.
Whether you are new to sustainable design or consider yourself an eco-warrior these sessions will help you unlock the potential of your projects.
Schedule a meeting to discuss your impact.
Session Themes:
Developing Shared Language
Defining the same words the same way is the first step to creating a shared vision for social change. Often times our best intentions fail because we simply don’t see the same ideas the same way.

Intro to Sustainable Design
The basic principles of sustainability have been reinterpreted into countless frameworks, all of which share consistent themes. Learn more about the principles that guide sustainable design practice and how to include these concepts into your everyday design and life practice.
Envisioning Your Sustainable Impact
How do we get from project idea to sustainable output? What questions do we need to ask? What frameworks help to clarify our sustainability goals? How do we make the thought process of sustainability accessible to our everyday lives and decisions? Once the problems of sustainability have been framed we are better able to make conscious choices about how to design a more sustainable and inclusive world. This strategy webinar teaches the basic frameworks and thought processes behind sustainable creativity and how we can begin to make better choices to create a better world.
Mapping Your Project
Do you have a project you’d like step by step guidance with? The thought process behind sustainable design takes a bit of time to research and build clarity. These sessions are designed to help with living projects seeking sustainable outcomes. With your problem statement or project in hand we’ll work out the kinks together until we’ve created a story worth telling.
