Abstract
while we are already designing biophilic buildings and the immediate spaces around them, we must increasingly imagine biophilic cities and should support a new kind of biophilic urbanism. Exactly what is a biophilic city, what are its key features and qualities? Perhaps the simplest answer is that it is a city that puts nature first in its design, planning, and management; it recognizes the essential need for daily human contact with nature as well as the many environmental and economic values provided by nature and natural systems.
