... Although the literature recognizes the need for impact forecasting tools, it appears increasingly important to support strategies aimed at increasing adaptability seen as a characteristic of the designed system that allows its transformation/modification, increasing its performance qualities and its effective lifespan. In this sense, adaptability is one of the fundamental requisites for a holistic-circular regeneration and redevelopment of neighborhoods and architectures, conceived as products that are not "disposable" but "error-friendly" or "predisposed towards error" (Manzini, 2012) and structured to "regenerate" following damage or decompensation through actions of transformation, repair, maintenance, reuse, reconditioning, etc. ...

... The aim is to transition toward a society that promotes local governance, culture and economy through fundamentally changing personal behavior and interactions between citizens. Transition movements aim to transform the intent that underpins conventional practices and ideas, challenging the increased dependence on globalized structures and the growth-based, neo-liberal mindset (North 2010;Hopkins 2012). In response to environmental issues, this narrative advocates novel solutions that account for local situations and represent the interests of those involved (design) (Gibbons et al. 2006;Seyfang 2009). ...

... Given the global, regional and local patterns of rapid biodiversity loss (Cardinale et al., 2012;Kardol et al., 2018;Ross et al., 2021), creative and inspiring ways are needed to redress the vicious cycle of increasing threats to the natural environment and human disengagement (Boehnert, 2012). In fact, there is a strong parallel between precipitous biodiversity decline and human disengagement with environmental issues (Bandura, 2007), which might be context-related (Qin et al., 2022). ...

... When pluralism becomes an end in itself, real politics is pushed to other arenas. (Diken and Laustsen 2004, 7) This is the case for environmental and urban planning issues, which are dealt with through compromise, technical and management arrangements, and consensus building (Kaika and Swyngedouw 2012;Swyngedouw 2009). Haughton and McManus (2019) show that depoliticisation in planning and its related fields is linked to the deployment and use of numerous calculative tools, such as the use of economic cost-benefit calculations in environmental assessments. ...

... In terms of the implementation of development, green construction is part of sustainable construction in a holistic way which intends to protect and balance the artificial and natural environment, as well as build housing that explains human dignity and urges economic equality (Du Plessis et al., 2002). ;Ervianto, 2014Ervianto, , 2015Glavinich, 2008;Hartman, 2012). Another study states that green construction or what is called green construction is part of sustainable construction or sustainable development which has a way of implementing construction that pays attention to a green process and green supply chain as well as the application of efficient construction so as not to leave or reduce construction waste (Abduh , 2012;Bon-Gang, 2018;McGraw Hill Construction, 2012;Shi et al., 2013;Vale, 2009). ...

Saving the planet's remaining resources requires that cities in safest locations infill and grow inwards and avoid sprawl (Suryawinata & Maas, 2012;Keenan and Chakrabarti, 2013;Chakrabarti, 2013). Thus, cities need not only reorganizing but redesigning. ...

... We might use her focus as a lens upon design practice also, wrapped up as it is in consumerism, situated as it is within neoliberal and globalised capitalist systems, and carried out, as it is, by designers who are, of course, also citizens within the populations she is looking at. Soper's Alternative Hedonism (2008, 2012) also turns to the disarmingly simple idea of humble pleasures to challenge the belief that technology, so-called 'technofixes', will save the world from the climate emergency 2 . As Soper puts it "...mainstream responses to climate change focus on the technical fixes that might allow us indefinitely to pursue consumerist lifestyles. ...

... According to a widespread stream of thought, environmental friendly design is to a large extent a straightforward application of best practices, often abstracted from heterogeneous physical, social, and technological contexts. The idea, in the terms of Harvey (2001), of "fixing" depleted landscapes by implementing ideal paradigms of design, seems perfectly compliant with neo-liberal imperatives (Spencer 2012) in order to make them palatable for the market. ...
