NATURE BASED ARCHITECTURE
Buildings and cities that work like Nature
What is Nature Based Architecture?
Nature Based Architecture is a holistic way of designing buildings and cities as living systems.
Inspired by nature, it creates spaces that generate clean energy, harvest and treat water, purify the air, and support biodiversity. At the same time, it reconnects people with the natural world, shaping healthier, more resilient cities that enhance our quality of life—and the planet’s.

FEATURED PROJECTS
MALAGA - SPAIN
This EU-funded project transforms greywater into a 100 m² hydroponic green wall. It merges circular water reuse with biodiversity and design, creating a living system that cleans water, cools the air, and brings nature back into the city—proving how urban infrastructure can be regenerative.
