transdisciplinary approaches and situated practices,
in order to build and restore nature-culture synchronicities.
design with environment
Today, we are faced with complex issues in human habitats that are entwined with climate change. We believe these stem from an alienation from nature.
What humans know as nature and other beings is a ‘crisis’.
We need new imaginations and situated to better understand nature-culture complexities,
and respond with greater rigour and sensitivity.
Design research and creative practices create transdisciplinary modes
to read and respond with and through immersive place-based engagements,
generating new knowledges and possibilities.
