Podcast appearances and mentions of bill browning

Most teachers know that the physical space in schools and classrooms matter for student learning, health and wellness. But often teachers are using guesswork when they make decisions about physical spaces that are conducive to learning. Design consultant Bill Browning and architect Jim Determan are practitioners and researchers on biophilic design. In this conversation they share the research on how to create spaces that support student learning and wellness and share ideas for educators to turn their own physical spaces into learning spaces.

In this episode of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Bill Browning, Founding Partner of Terrapin Bright Green, a sustainability consulting firm that helps governments, corporations, and complex real estate projects meet sustainability goals that lead to the improved health and wellbeing of employees and ecosystems, as well as the enhanced performance of their products and systems.Bill is one of the green building and real estate industry's foremost thinkers and strategists, and an advocate for sustainable design solutions at all levels of business, government, and civil society. His expertise has been sought out by organizations as diverse as Fortune 500 companies, leading universities, non-profit organizations, the U.S. military, and foreign governments.He and Ted worked together at Rocky Mountain Institute, where he founded Green Development Services, an entrepreneurial, non-profit “Think and Do Tank." He later went on to co-found Terrapin Bright Green, created out of the Partners' shared sense of urgency to transition to a sustainable development model that could only be achieved by working with developers, communities, and companies around the world. Their mission has become an imperative to not only create a sustainable world but one that is aligned with natural processes and supports human health and wellbeing at all levels.He defines biophilic design and shares case studies that demonstrate the effects that  harmonizing the built environment and natural world have on cognitive growth, health and wellbeing, and profitability and productivity within the business sector. Terrapin's work is reflective of both the culture of the community and the environmental features of a given ecosystem.

Sustainable Futures sits down with designer and consultant Bill Browning to discuss the science and practice of biophilic design and how it can influence and affect our interaction with the world around us.

The health benefits of biophilic design are well-established: reduced anxiety, improved focus, lower heart rate, and generally just better overall wellbeing. However, how do those health benefits translate to financial outcomes? How do we get more business leaders and policymakers to implement biophilic design on a broader scale? Enter the latest publication from Terrapin Bright Green, The Economics of Biophilia second edition. This new report, co-authored by today's guests Bill Browning and Catie Ryan, looks at five sectors - offices, education, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and community - detailing the benefits of biophilic design interventions for each and then making the financial case in great detail. In this episode, Bill and Catie share how a flood of new research led them to update their original 2012 report, how businesses and policymakers can utilize biophilic design to meet their financial objectives, and why it really all comes back to long term thinking.  Show NotesThe Economics of Biophilia: Why Designing with Nature Makes Financial Sense, second edition by Bill Browning, Catie Ryan, and Dakota WalkerNature Inside A Biophilic Design Guide by Bill Browning and Catie Ryan Terrapin Bright GreenInterfaceKeywords: Economics, Biophilia, Biophilic Design, Nature Based Design, Nature Based, Finance, Architecture, Built Environment, Green Building, Nature, Finance

As humans, we have notable biophilic responses to natural materials, forms, fractal patterns, and so much more. However, one material stands out from the rest for the particularly strong fascination it seems to hold - wood. In this special edition of Biophilic Solutions, hear from green building expert Bill Browning as he explores the science behind our distinct inclination for wood and wood patterns and why the presence of this particular material has been shown to lower stress, reduce blood pressure, and provide a sense of comfort and warmth. Dive deeper into this fascinating concept by reading The Nature of Wood white paper, authored by Bill Browning, Catie Ryan, and Claire DeMarco in our shownotes.Show Notes:The Nature of Wood (Terrapin Bright Green)Forestry Innovation InvestmentSoftwood Lumber BoardSasanqua Spa Kiawah Island (Clodagh)Oliver Heath Studio Maggie's Leeds Center by Heatherwick Studio (ArchDaily)14 Patterns of Biophilic Design (Terrapin Bright Green)Key Words: Biophilia, Biophilic, Biophilic Design, Green Building, Architecture, Green Architecture, Nature, Nature Based Design, Nature Based Solutions, Wood, Wood Grain, Mass Timber, Mass Timber Building, Psychology, Wellness 

As a species, we seek closeness to nature. Designing for well-being, therefore, aims to bring nature to the heart of the built environment. But what do these ‘biophilic' spaces feel like? And how do we set the stage to reap their benefits?

Mary Davidge has spent her career at the forefront of biophilic design. Between 2014 and 2021, Mary served as Google's Director of Global Design, where she worked closely with biophilic leaders like Bill Browning and Judi Heerwagen to implement design solutions across Google's campuses that prioritize health, happiness, and the environment. Prior to that, she ran her own firm, where her groundbreaking work in biophilic design and green building helped lay the foundation for certifications like LEED Platinum and the Living Building Challenge. Nowadays, Mary serves on the board of the Biophilic Institute and on the advisory board of the International Living Future Institute Biophilic Design Initiative, advocating tirelessly for biophilic solutions at scale. In this episode, we discuss Mary's career at the intersection of tech and green building, the importance of placemaking, and why greening cities can solve multiple societal problems at once. Show NotesAbout Mary Davidge Google's Mary Davidge Talks Sustainability Changes in Silicon Valley Over the Years (Green Building Matters)Why Does Biophilic Design Make Us Feel So Good?

Today we talk about mindful spaces and biophilic meditation with Sophie Lacey.Sophie has been running her own freelance copywriting and content writing business for nearly 15 years, working with a variety of lifestyle brands and specialists in placemaking, the built environment, interior design and retail. Her half-Swedish heritage inspires a love of simple design and an affinity with nature and organic materials, colours and textures, while her diploma in meditation teaching gives her a unique perspective on mindful spaces, biophilic design and placemaking for wellbeing. Sophie's meditation and mindfulness teaching takes an unusually broad and non-affiliated approach, meaning students are encouraged to choose and adapt their practice according to need and preference. She uses her creative copywriting skills to devise engaging multi-sensory meditations, using her love of nature and spiritual ideas from across cultures to reconnect her students with their true selves in an effective and enjoyable way. In the spring and summer she leads meditation and forest bathing events at University of Oxford Botanic Garden & Arboretum.https://sophielacey-copywriting.co.uk/https://www.lindentreemeditation.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophielaceycopycontentwriter/https://www.facebook.com/lindentreemeditationdotcom Support the podcast - https://www.patreon.com/buildingsustainabilityWorkshops with Sigi Koko & James Henderson - https://thathempcreteguy.com/coursesFuturebuild 2022 - https://www.futurebuild.co.uk/Biophillic Design Episode with Bill Browning and Catie Ryan - https://www.buildingsustainabilitypodcast.com/biophilic-design-bill-browning-catie-ryan-bs047/ Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/buildingsustainability)

Evolution consists of trial and error over the space of millions of years. Over time, it's safe to say nature typically lands on what works. And two ways to implement nature inspired design is through biophilia and biomimicry. In this episode, we're lucky to be speaking with Bill Browning, world renowned on the research of these concepts. He was a co-founder of Terrapin Bright Green and founding member of the US Green Building Council. In this episode we discuss the principles, economics and design tips with biophilia and biomimicry.   If you want to learn more about designing or building with timber, I recommend you go to the WoodSolutions Website and download the Technical Design Guides: https://www.woodsolutions.com.au/publications   I recommend watching the WoodSolutions weekly webinars.

This week I am incredibly excited to be joined by Bill Browning and Catie Ryan from Terrapin Bright Green to discuss biophilic design. Biophilic design is a concept used within the building industry to increase occupant connectivity to the natural environment through the use of direct nature, indirect nature, and space and place conditions. Used at both the building and city-scale, it is argued that this idea has health, environmental, and economic benefits for building occupants and urban environments, with few drawbacks. (Wikipedia)For me, finding out there is scientific evidence to show that bringing nature into your life makes you happier/healthier/better functioning was a slight surprise. In every natural building I have been in, people have talked of 'the feeling' or of calming. Having read into biophilia, it's certainly true that nature does this. What I find fascinating is the depth at which we can utilise this knowledge to create better spaces for humans to exist in - ones which bring nature in. This goes well beyond, putting some house plants in a room, but looks at views, textures, airflow, safety, shadows, patterns and so much more. I realised that biophilic design is the thread which holds together much of what i'm interested in and what these podcasts are often about. If i'm totally honest I didn't really know why I was including episodes on craft or getting into nature in this podcast. It just 'felt' connected. Now I see that it is connected!  These are examples of biophilia that make happier healthier human beings. By bringing the willow basket into our lives and into our homes, offices and spaces we are connecting ourselves with nature, the place where humans thrive.Biophilic Design LinksTriodos bank free £60 - https://join.triodos.co.uk/raf/friend?code=XR6N3JQ914 Patterns of Biophilic design - https://www.terrapinbrightgreen.com/report/14-patterns/Rocky Mountain Institute - https://rmi.org/ US Green Building Council - https://www.usgbc.org/LEED rating system - https://www.usgbc.org/leedStephen KellertView through a window may influence recovery from surgery - Ulrich - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6143402/Recovery times in hospitals - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3699874/The economic case for biophilc design - https://www.terrapinbrightgreen.com/report/economics-of-biophilia/ING headquarters - Impact of Biophilic on learning spaces https://www.terrapinbrightgreen.com/report/the-impact-of-biophilic-learning-spaces-on-student-success/Working with Fractals - Episode sponsored by:Beavercraft Wood Tools Beavervcraft wood carving tools are great value and ideal for beginners and hobby carvers.

In this episode, we sat down with Bill Browning, co-founder of Terrapin Bright Green and one of the green building industry's foremost thinkers, to talk about bringing nature into the built environment and the science behind why it so effectively enhances human wellbeing. Using the 14 Patterns of Biophilic Design as our guide, we explore the ways in which architects, designers, and individuals can incorporate nature-based principles into their spaces and the wealth of possible positive outcomes, from improving workplace performance and productivity, producing a greater sense of calm, and even promoting a more charitable and sociable mindset. Follow Bill on Twitter.Biophilic Solutions is brought to you by the Biophilic Institute and the Biophilic Leadership Summit. Follow your hosts Monica Olsen and Jennifer Walsh on Twitter.Show Notes14 Patterns of Biophilic Design: Improving Health and Wellbeing in the Built Environment, by William Browning, Catherine O'Ryan, and Joseph ClancyNature Inside: a biophilic design guide, by William Browning and Catherine O'Ryan, 2020What is Biophilic Design?

In part 1 of a 2-part series on risk attitude in dementia environments, Max and Jennifer talk to 4 great guests – Kim O'Brien, Amy McDonough, Len Fishman, and Bill Browning – about this difficult but timely topic for senior housing and care. We all experience certain amounts of risk in our daily lives, and allowing for that in dementia environments becomes a complex calculation. We kick off the conversation with Kim O'Brien and Amy McDonough of United Active Living in Calgary, Alberta. Kim serves as president and CEO at United Active Living. Their communities provide independent living, assisted living, and memory care in an innovative integrated community. Prior to joining United Active Living, Kim served as the CEO of Horizon Housing Society, a non-profit charitable organization specializing in the development and operations of affordable housing in Calgary. While in this role, she was a strong voice locally and nationally for the lasting positive impacts from people having access to a safe, quality home and the opportunity to be a part of the community. Amy leads the United Minds program at United Active Living. In this role, Amy implements and leads the company's integrated living and relationship-centered philosophy, educating and empowering front-line staff, managers, families, and residents to support those living with dementia. Before joining the team at United Active Living, Amy served as volunteer coordinator and memory care support at Convent Care Canada and as recreation therapist and co-lead of the Dementia Butterfly Model of Care Project at Intercare Southwood Care Center. Next up, we speak with Len Fishman. Len is a nationally recognized leader in the field of aging policy. He directs the Gerontology Institute at UMass Boston's John W. McCormack Graduate School of Policy and Global Studies. For 12 years he served as CEO of Hebrew SeniorLife, New England's largest nonprofit provider of senior housing and health care. Prior to joining Hebrew SeniorLife, Fishman was president and CEO of LeadingAge, a coalition of 6,000 non-profit aging services organizations, in Washington, D.C. He served as commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services under Governor Christine Todd Whitman. Before that, he was a health care lawyer in NJ and PA. Finally, we speak with Bill Browning, one of the green building and real estate industry's foremost thinkers and strategists, and an advocate for sustainable design solutions at all levels of business, government, and civil society. In 2006, Bill founded Terrapin Bright Green to craft high-performance environmental strategies for corporations, governments, and large-scale real estate developments. Previously, in 1991, he founded Green Development Services at the Rocky Mountain Institute, an entrepreneurial, non-profit “think and do tank.” Past roles include Director of Design and Environment for Haymount, VA, co-founder of Browning+Bannon LLC, founding member of the USGBC Board of Directors, and Chair of USGBC's Governance Committee. He is a co-author of several books and publications including most recently Nature Inside: A Biophilic Design Guide.   Continue the conversation in our LinkedIn group Shaping Dementia Environments: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9044567/   Learn more about Perkins Eastman insights: https://www.perkinseastman.com/white-papers/

Marc Mondor has been a licensed architect for over a decade and has been an influential voice in sustainability since the early 1990's. As Managing Principal and Cofounder of evolveEA, Marc works with greening design and construction projects in order to leverage organizational and operational sustainability.  His consulting work has led to many notable and innovative firsts, including the first LEED certified project in Africa, the oldest LEED EB certified project (1869) and the first LEED certified supermarket.   Marc Mondor - Commitment & Contributions In 2015, Marc was selected as a LEED Fellow for his service, commitment and contributions to the green building and sustainability field. Marc has lectured nationally, is one of several dozen international professionals to be named US Green Building Council LEED Faculty and is a trained facilitator. Prior to co-founding evolveEA, Marc was Project Manager for the Pittsburgh Green Building Alliance, where he consulted for organizations, managed the Green Building Fund and helped chair the USGBC Greenbuild Conference.  Marc received his Bachelor's of Architecture from California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo and studied sustainable design in Scandinavia and Denmark and this is what kindled his interest. He is a Registered Architect and a LEED O+M BD+C and ID+C Accredited Professional.   "There was really no name for the type of work that we wanted to do back then." – Marc Mondor   Studying Abroad and Mentors Marc studied in France, Scandinavia and Denmark.  This opportunity did spark his interest in sustainable design.  Marc had several mentors along his journey. Bill Browning was one of the mentors later in his studies that provided much needed validation to ensure this was the career for him. “You look far beyond the components of the building, you are looking at all the systems that impact the building.” – Marc Mondor   Projects with Impact Marc notes that the work done on supermarkets is one of the projects he feels is making an impact still today.  Additionally, they did a project in Egypt for HSBC which was a global concern and they were mandated to do a LEED project without being fully aware of what it was.  Ended up with the Regional Headquarters and was the first LEED project in Africa. “We had to create a lot of communications graphics for them in regards to what LEED is and why should they care about this rating system that is from the United States.” – Marc Mondor   Around the Corner, Routines & Favorite Books Marc believes technology is going to cause massive efficiency at all levels in the future.  This will allow people to be engaged and contribute in a way they haven't been able to before with sustainability.  Marc and his partner try to empower their employees and personally works out to keep a balance. He would like to begin writing books in the next decade.   “90% of being successful is showing up.” – Marc Mondor   Marc suggests the following books: Commonwealth by Jeffrey D. Sachs Behavioral Economic books by Dr. Dan Ariely Biographies:  Steve Jobs and Leonardo Divinchi by Walter Isaacson The Agony and the Ecstasy: A Biographical Novel of Michelangelo by Irving Stone   To hear more about Marc's journey, download and listen to the episode!   Learn more about Marc Mondor: LinkedIn   Connect with Charlie Cichetti and GBES: Charlie on LinkedIn Green Building Educational Services GBES on Twitter Connect on LinkedIn Like on Facebook Google+ GBES Pinterest Pins GBES on Instagram   If you truly enjoyed the show, don't forget to leave a positive rating and review on iTunes.  We have prepared more episodes for the upcoming weeks, so come by again next week!
