Regenerative sustainability
can guide the process of reforming a new relationship between systems of human
and nature in which built environments can be the key component of this partnership. In order to address the scarcity of proper
support tools, this study aims to constitute a framework. The research firstly
examines the properties of a built environment with regenerative aspects in
order to reveal key principles and knowledge. Framework is organized as a
conceptual guidance tool based on the systematization of these acquisitions. Process
begins with a pre-design stage including an integrated analysis where all key
elements are understood with the aim of procreating outcomes to distinguish
built environment’s catalysis role. Based upon pre-design outcomes,
target-oriented decisions can be produced for all stages. Evaluating the
aspects of these decisions can initiate a prosperous feedback and feed-forward
cycle. Tasks and relations are positioned into a model and by this way it can
be possible to re-organize thinking systems and to supply a strategic guidance
for different case-specific experiences. As an alternative to current research
context, it is believed that interactive stages of the framework organized in a
symbiotic cooperation can serve to fill the stated scarcity. By examining the
significance of the whole process through interactions of phases and proposing
an approach for their systematic regulation, built environments can be designed
as healthy ecosystems.
