Architecture Designing for Non-Human Species: The Future of Inclusive Cities Cities are designed for people although animals like birds, bees and bats inhabit these ecosystems too. And as urbanization proliferates and biodiversity declines, architects are looking to designs that support a broader range of life forms other than humans. Including non-human species in the design process leads to cities which are healthier and more sustainable for all their inhabitants. What Is Architecture of Other Species?

Cities were built for humans, what if buildings also protected birds, bees, bats, wildlife? https://t.ly/stkow

Across the United States, several abandoned shopping malls are being transformed into urban farms and indoor agriculture hubs. Instead of sitting vacant, these massive retail spaces are now hosting hydroponic systems, vertical farms, and community food programs that grow fresh produce year-round. The shift turns commercial decline into opportunity—boosting local food security, reducing food deserts, creating green jobs, and cutting transportation emissions. By reusing existing infrastructure, cities can lower redevelopment costs while building more resilient, community-focused food systems. What was once retail decay is becoming a blueprint for sustainable urban renewal.

Abandoned malls in the U.S. are turning into urban farms 🌱🏙️
Boosting local food & cutting waste.
