Ecological Inhabitation a Life-centred Design Approach to Multispecies Dwelling

Our current definition of sustainability does not recognize the negative impacts on animal species other than our own . As

human development expands; architects need to analyze and design with more care and responsibility to ensure that future generations of all species can continue to exist and thrive.
