Circular Cities Solution with Biophilic Design and Nature-Based Solutions
Today, as a result of the increasing population, needs and deterioration in the supply/demand balance and the destructive effects of humans on nature have increased. Parallel to this result, it also caused the deterioration of the ecological balance. Human beings, who feel that they have control and power over nature, have disrupted the balance of nature over time and have become increasingly distant from nature in this deteriorated balance. Urban green spaces are struggling with many problems that can be described as “urban disease”. The United Nations shows that the world population will reach approximately 10 billion in 2050. In response to these problems, innovative approaches are applied to design more livable, healthy, sustainable, and resilient cities. Biophilic design and nature-based solutions (NbS) are at the forefront of these approaches. Although both approaches are based on sustainability, their focus is different. One of the general objectives of our research is to evaluate the ecosystem services provided by urban green infrastructure in terms of biophilic design and nature-based solutions. The specific objectives of this research are (1) to compile monitoring and evaluation indicators for biophilic planning with biophilic design pioneers such as Wilson (Biophilia: the human bond with other species. Harvard University Press, Cambridge, 1984), Beatley (Biophilic cities: integrating nature into urban design and planning. Washington, DC, Island Press, 2010), (2) to determine how these parameters can be used to lead innovation through an expert survey, and (3) questioning how to improve health, well-being, and productivity in the built environment. It is foreseen that a method proposal can be developed to create sustainable cities, thanks to the findings obtained as a result of this research, expert surveys, and method diagram.
