Looking backwards in time, hydrologically and ecologically, you will learn how the natural systems functioned, as well as looking forward to understanding the challenges facing a site in terms of water resilience such as drought, urban heat island, the potential flash floods from intense rainfall events, and fire risk.
This session will provide insights into this design approach through case studies at the building, site, and campus scale, including Microsoft’s new Silicon Valley Campus and UC Berkeley’s Resilient Water Plan.
