Beyond Shallow Ecology with Skye Jin

In his thought-provoking book Taking the Country's Side, philosopher Sébastien Marot argues that the separation between agriculture and architecture represents the original schism in human habitation. This divide, he suggests, has led to a profound alienation from the natural world and a radical instrumentalization of nature—one of the root causes of today's climate and biodiversity crises. But what would happen if this separation were healed? What could architecture learn from permaculture practices and principles? These are the questions we explore in our latest podcast episode featuring permaculture designer Skye Jin. Tune in to discover: The key differences between shallow ecologies and deep ecology. How architects can draw inspiration and learn from permaculturalists. Ways in which permaculture can offer a holistic approach, introducing a stronger social dimensions into regenerative design. This episode is part of 10 Dogmas, a 10-part podcast series that rethinks the core assumptions of architectural theory and practice. Produced by CAFx in collaboration with VELUX's Build for Life initiative, the series features ten leading architectural studios critically examining ten fundamental dogmas shaping the future of architecture.
