Rewilding architecture is an innovative approach that, inspired by ecology and natural cycles, seeks to restore degraded ecosystems and bring life back to urban and natural landscapes. By embracing obsolescence and guiding the process of natural succession, this approach creates spaces that not only rebuild biodiversity but also foster a lasting connection between people and nature. In this article, you’ll discover how architects are using rewilding design to breathe new life into cities.

Neuroaesthetics and neuroarchitecture are two emerging interdisciplinary approaches in design that, by drawing on neuroscience, explore how physical environments influence human emotions, behavior, and mental well-being. Focusing on sensory experience, aesthetics, and emotional comfort, these concepts demonstrate that spatial design can go beyond form and function to play a vital role in reducing stress, enhancing focus, boosting creativity, and improving quality of life. From biophilic design and emotional ergonomics to therapeutic and educational spaces, neuroarchitecture—guided by scientific evidence—opens a new path toward creating environments that are responsive to human needs.

The revitalization of abandoned spaces—when it goes beyond mere repurposing—can lead to the creation of human-centered and inspiring environments. Projects like Impluvium, El Tanque, and Café Dabang demonstrate that through the intelligent use of light, nature, materials, and simplicity, worn-out structures can be transformed into spaces for reflection, tranquility, and renewed life—a process that transforms not only architecture but also the experience of living itself.

Elevating Building Foundations is an engineering and climatic response to challenging ground conditions such as flooding, storms, melting polar ice, high humidity, and environmentally sensitive sites. In contemporary architecture, this strategy not only protects the structure but also enhances airflow, mitigates climate-related damage, respects cultural context, and reduces environmental footprint. From flood-prone regions to tropical climates, elevating buildings contributes to damage reduction, improved ventilation, and a more harmonious adaptation to nature.

In humid climates, architecture must adapt to moisture rather than resist it. Traditional design in tropical regions has responded to climatic needs through the use of local materials, natural ventilation, pitched roofs, and elevated structures. Modern architecture, by integrating these approaches with innovations such as floating foundations, dynamic façades, breathing windows, and green roofs, offers sustainable solutions for moisture control, ventilation, and thermal comfort. As a result, climate-conscious design not only reduces energy consumption but also enhances the quality of life in hot and humid regions.
