The Urban Greenprint applies biomimicry to the built<br />
environment, learning from nature at an ecosystem<br />
scale and applying nature’s strategies at a building<br />
scale.<br />
Funded by the Bullitt Foundation and underway in<br />
Seattle, this project is taking lessons from nature<br />
about how the region’s ecosystem functioned before<br />
urban development and applying that understanding<br />
to current building, infrastructure, and open space<br />
design. Research is being done in the areas of water<br />
flows, carbon flows, and biodiversity.<br />
This <strong>SeedKit</strong> (v1) is part of the Urban Greenprint<br />
project. It explores strategies related to water<br />
flows, specifically related to evaporation.<br />
