New York-based nonprofit Terreform ONE has established a distinctive design tactic that investigates projects through the regenerative use of natural materials, science, and the emergent field of socio-ecological design. This kind of design approach uses actual living matter (not abstracted imitations of nature) to create new functional elements and spaces. These future-based actions are not only grounded in social justice, but are also far-reaching in their application of digital manufacturing and maker culture. Terreform ONE tackles urgent environmental and urban social concerns through the integrated use of living materials and organisms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mitchell Joachim, Maria Aiolova, Terreform One\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948765209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948765206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Actar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 420\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 8.50w x 1.50d","brand":"Mitchell Joachim","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44055800054015,"sku":"9781948765206","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_745784be-b555-4166-bc55-8f5484306b09.jpg?v=1685037862","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/design-with-life-mitchell-joachim-9781948765206","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
