off the grid
The Bioplanning Institute, in collaboration with world-class thinkers, architects, urban planners, artists, ecologists, climate, energy, mobility, construction, and financial experts, will create Pilots, Comparable Feasibility Studies, and Visions (PCFS&V) to explore what happens when we design with life at the center.
Creating a Conflict-Concious Environment in Every Sense
This shift in urban geometry moves from building on a grid to creating ecological communities that support each other.
Each pilot will include a community of between 5,000 and 30,000 inhabitants in areas experiencing major urban expansion or requiring recreational or reconstruction efforts.
Join our efforts or suggest another place.
