The volume includes light, sensory, and vicarious experiences that deepen the relationship between design and nature. It presents a body of practices related to design and nature that focus on nature relations as a form of inquiry for designers, building understanding and terminology along the way. It draws on some of the work and findings of the Nature Relations Platform pilot project and its experiments around key themes of design and nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The Nature Relations Platform project was a research project led by Louise St. Pierre and Kate Fletcher. Field researchers spent time in nature, and reported their findings in various modes such as audio recordings and sensory workshops. The Team Comprised of Field Researchers Louise St. Pierre (Vancouver, Canada), Kate Fletcher (Macclesfield, UK), Caro McCaw (Dunedin, New Zealand), Zach Camozzi (Nanaimo, Canada). Design, Development, and Workshop Creation: Melanie Camman, Giulia de Oliveira Borba, Yejin Eun, Eden Zinchik (a.k.a. The Dream Team).
