Panel discussion hosted by Oliver Heath with guest speakers from Grimshaw Architects, Henning Larsen Architects, and biophilic design strategist Victoria Jackson of Oliver Heath Design!

On 6th June, the Roca London Gallery will host a panel discussion as part of the new Bio-spaces: Regenerative Resilient Futures exhibition, curated by Planted and Oliver Heath Design.

Global biophilic design specialist Oliver Heath will be joined by a panel of experts to discuss how we can transform our buildings if we recalibrate our relationship with nature. The discussion will explore how our urban environments would look and feel if nature was part of the architectural design process. Asking the questions: How can we start to collaborate with nature as a member of the project team rather than a service provider? Can we really advocate for nature in the design of our buildings and cities without a human-centric bias?

This talk will bring together some of the leading voices who are helping architects to design with nature rather than against it. To conclude the discussion a Q&A will provide the audience to engage with our expert panel.
