The Social, Environmental and Economic Value of Designing with Life

Masterclass + Round Table Workshop – Habitarmonia Círculo Español

Friday, November 14th | 13:00–15:00 CET
Habitarmonia Ecosystem Platform
Facilitated by: Nuria Muñoz Arce

About this Session

We are moving beyond neuroarchitecture, beyond the isolated study of how the brain reacts to space, to explore something deeper:
how life itself thrives through design.

In this transformative Masterclass + Round Table Workshop, we will connect neuroscience, biophilia, and regenerative design to uncover the true value of environments that nurture wellbeing.
Together, we’ll explore how the same principles that heal and inspire people also generate measurable social, environmental, and economic prosperity.

What Makes This Experience Different

This isn’t another passive webinar; it’s a living, hybrid learning format that blends insight with embodiment.

Part 1: Masterclass (60 min)

Discover the powerful synergy between biophilic and regenerative design and economic growth.
We’ll explore how spaces designed with life in mind enhance wellbeing, productivity, sustainability, and long-term financial value across multiple sectors.

Part 2: Round Table Workshop (60 min)

We’ll immediately apply what we’ve learned through active dialogue and co-creation.
Together, we’ll translate wellbeing into tangible value by practicing how to communicate it effectively to clients, investors, and stakeholders in your own professional context.

Why This Matters Now

Biophilic design is often seen only as an investment in human wellbeing, which it is.
But it’s also a financial and cultural multiplier, generating measurable returns in healthcare, education, hospitality, and corporate environments.

The challenge?
Most professionals don’t know how to express this value to clients who think in terms of ROI, not restoration.

This session changes that, empowering you with data, tools, and language to make the invisible benefits of design visible and valuable.

What You’ll Discover

The Economic Case

• Direct and indirect financial benefits of biophilic design across sectors
• Data showing how biophilic projects outperform traditional ones
• Productivity increases, operational cost reductions, enhanced brand value
• Long-term ROI and cost-saving metrics

Real-World Evidence

• Case studies from healthcare, education, hospitality, and corporate projects
• Examples where wellbeing and profitability aligned successfully
• Frameworks for quantifying biophilic and regenerative value

Communication Strategies

• How to translate scientific and emotional impact into economic language
• Building compelling business cases for biophilic interventions
• Speaking confidently with different audiences — developers, CFOs, investors, clients

The Round Table Experience

In the second hour, we’ll come together as a community of practice:

✨ Translate biophilic and regenerative principles into business value through real-life scenarios
✨ Craft your personal pitch: how you communicate the economics of wellbeing
✨ Engage in collective problem-solving: share challenges and co-create solutions
✨ Build a language toolkit you can apply immediately

This is where theory becomes practice, and knowledge becomes embodied confidence.

Why This Format Works

Learning alone isn’t enough.
Transformation happens when we practice together, when we:
💬 Ask questions that matter to our own projects
🧠 Articulate these ideas in our own voices
🤝 Receive feedback and build relationships with like-minded professionals

The Round Table format fosters a space for dialogue, empathy, and collective intelligence, where learning is lived, not just learned.

💚 Not just profit, but prosperity — for people, projects, and planet.
