“Mitigating the bad, promoting the good”
To mitigate challenges, we follow established hierarchies, prioritizing avoidance over minimization and restoration, using flexible compensation schemes as the last step.
For promoting the good, we are inspired by the nature-inclusive design (NID) trichotomy, which distinguishes between: restorative designs to facilitate or speed up natural recovery, creative actions that boost biodiversity beyond what would naturally occur by either optimizing infrastructure, adding structures/features.
