Online Learning
Biophilia, Evidence-Based Design and Integrating Plants for Longevity
What does Florence Nightingale have to do with design? Why do workers who have no view of nature take more sick leave? In this session, you'll learn about the three pillars of biophilic design, the social and economic effect of biophilia, why hospitals are designed as they are, the introduction of evidence-based design (EBD) and how it's our responsibility to design our future.
After this we'll take a look at the technical side of integrating nature into our interior designs and the four principles that allow you to design for long-term success.

How and Where to Design a Living Wall to Meet Fire Regulations
Covering how living walls are fire tested and breaking down what a system's rating really means. More importantly, we'll discuss where living walls can and can't be used, things to watch out for in the market and design amendments to improve fire safety.
The aim is for you to leave this session with a better understanding of fire safety around green walls, and where and how you can design them into your projects safely.
By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of:
- The 4 steps to a fully compliant living wall installation.
- How living walls are fire rated
- What a fire rating ad how to explain it
- How to spot bad practice in the market and an increased awareness of it
- How you can use certain design amendments to improve the fire safety of a living wall

Integrating Green Infrastructure to create Long-lasting Environmental Assets
A consolidated view of the results of integrating green infrastructure for the environment, economy and society, backed by data and case studies. From the roofs to the walls and perimeters of buildings, let's look at the opportunities for greening even in the more complex scenarios. We'll discuss how greening systems can be designed for varying purposes such as biodiversity, biophilia or air quality, and find out how design influences whether you meet environmental regulations such as BNG or UGF. By the end of the session, you'll understand and be able to apply the principles underlying a long-lasting environmental asset.
