A Built Environment in Harmony With its Environment

Our built environment is sprawling across Earth's surface often in stark contrast and in conflict with the environment around it. We aim to develop concepts and designs for a built environment that harmoniously coexists and sustainably interacts with the environment around it. Starting from a small dwelling for a single person or small family and going to a neighborhood and town, we deliberate on the principles, the options to meet the requirements of the individuals and communities, and the design of the built environment and its elements. Accepting that the environmental conditions in a location no longer can be considered as persistent, we also contemplate on a built environment adaptable to changing environmental conditions.

If you are interested in an ecological and adaptable built environment then you might want to consider joining us in our efforts.

[Apr. 25, 2026] World Happiness Report Finds Positive Impacts of Collaborative Platforms: The World Happiness Report 2026 has a strong focus on the impacts of social media and the Web in general on human happiness. The results of most studies indicate that the use of most social media seems to have a negative impact on happiness, while those tools that generate trust and collaboration have a positive impact. The report sumarizes: “Internet activities fall into two groups. Communications, news, learning, and content creation are associated with higher life satisfaction. Social media, gaming, and browsing for fun are associated with lower life evaluations.” This supports the mission of Place4Us as a trust-focused collaborative platform for intercreativity and learning.

[Apr. 19, 2026] Earth Energy Imbalance is Increasing Rapidly: Finally the extreme increase in the Earth Energy Imbalance (EEI) is slowly starting to make headlines - far too late, though. The article “ What are zettajoules – and what do they tell us about Earth’s energy imbalance?” by Jonathan Watts published in the Guardian explains some of the basics. Importantly, the EEI double within only 13 years. In another article by Watts also in the Guardian and titled “ Earth being ‘pushed beyond its limits’ as energy imbalance reaches record high” the author points out that the World Meteorological Organization warned that Earth is struggling with a record energy imbalance, which is warming the oceans to unprecedented levels, making weather more extreme and threatening health and food supplies. Considering that Earth is more like a pool house with a very large pool than a greenhouse, the ocean is only delaying the heating of the atmosphere but not preventing it.
