Architectural Multispecies Building Design: Concepts, Challenges

Abstract

Baswajat Hagureii*

In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift in architectural design towards embracing a more inclusive approach that considers not only human
inhabitants but also the diverse species with which we share our environment. This emerging field, known as architectural multispecies design,
seeks to create built environments that accommodate the needs of various living organisms, fostering biodiversity and ecological resilience. This
article explores the concepts, challenges, and design processes involved in architectural multispecies building design. Architectural multispecies
design is rooted in the recognition of the interconnectedness of all life forms and the acknowledgment of the impact of human activities on
ecosystems.
