I don’t know why this specific topic has me stumped when I feel like I understand everything else.

It’s a design philosophy that attempts to introduce natural elements into the architecture. The idea is to give the feeling of being closer to nature on the whole. We’re talking big skylights and windows, so you can see the sky and surrounding flora and get a lot of natural light, sections dedicated for planting greenery, etc. It even goes as far as incorporating ventilation systems that require little to no machinery to operate.
