Is nature sentient? Not in the human sense, but Taoism views nature as a living, self-regulating force, with humans merely being one part of an inseparable whole. This worldview is urgent in the Anthropocene, where human-driven crises demand a paradigm shift from domination to coexistence. Beyond technological solutions, architecture can reawaken intrinsic senses numbed by digital distractions, reconnecting people to their environment and cosmic rhythms. Nature Trilogy highlights three projects that embody reverence for nature, resilience, and alignment with celestial cycles in an immersive experience that inspires awareness of life’s interconnectedness and human’s role in nature.
