Nature’s Architect: The role of Biomimicry in urban design
Conversations at the intersection of regeneration, adaptation and the built environment
This session explores how biomimicry, the practice of drawing inspiration from nature’s time-tested patterns and strategies – can inform the design of urban environments that are efficient, resilient, and harmonious with the natural world.

Moderated by Danny Almagor, co-founder of Small Giants Academy, this discussion explores the transformative potential of biomimicry in reimagining our cities – not merely as human habitats, but as integrated ecosystems that reflect the wisdom of nature.
