Architecture in Harmony with Nature
Brett Hulley
Brett Hulley runs an architecture practice that specialises in the design of buildings that create harmony between people and nature—for the benefit of both people and the planet. Join him to learn the benefits of architectural connections to nature and discover tips on how to design spaces using the principles of biophilic design, natural materials, sustainable practices, and passive design.
Biophilic Design – Creating positive interactions between people and nature.
Natural Materials – How to effectively use some common natural building materials (earth, straw, hempcrete).
Sustainability – Material sources, durability, minimised material waste, and beauty.
Passive Design – Harnessing nature’s energy sustainably to reduce artificial energy use.
You will learn skills that will change the way you look at your built environment, how you inhabit it, and how to create your own spaces in harmony with nature. Bring your notebooks!
