Finding and establishing an equilibrium requires attentiveness and care, as well as thorough research with actionable results. How can we help the planet, our home, maintain homeostasis? What does balance look like, how dynamic is it, and how do we, as individuals and diverse communities, relate with it? Living Systems approaches these questions by investigating systems of various scales—cities, neighborhoods, houses—with the purpose to develop models for human habitation that respect the planet's boundaries, serve the common good, sustain life at scale, and nourish the future.
