The Living Design Framework

A New Paradigm in Regeneration

Living Design bridges ancestral wisdom with contemporary science, enterprise, and culture to redefine how bioregions thrive. Every region is rooted in its own unique intelligence, weaving community, ecology, health, and economy into a living framework that nurtures abundance.

Guided by councils of elders, intergenerational leaders, and leading experts, Living Design proves that prosperity can be measured in more than financial gain alone. By aligning modern enterprise with timeless stewardship, we can move from depleting systems toward regenerative futures where surplus is shared and all life flourishes.

The 8 Multi-Capitals

Manufactured

Design and stewardship of infrastructure, technologies, and efficiencies that preserve, protect, and perpetuate.

Intellectual

Advancement of science, technology, systems knowledge, wisdom transfer, and applied learning for bioregional design and innovation.

Natural

Networks, trust, institutions, and relationships that enable coordinated action and mutual support. Strong social capital accelerates collective problem-solving and equitable outcomes.

Spiritual

Grounding in connection to place, purpose, and intergenerational responsibility as a compass for action.

Cultural

Preservation and renewal of ancestral wisdom, original principles, and the living identities of communities.

Human

Cultivation of capacity, creativity, health / wellbeing, and leadership that empower people to flourish.

Relational

Development of trust, equity, and reciprocal bonds across families, communities, and enterprises.

Financial

Generation and circulation of capital in ways that fuel regeneration, resilience, shared prosperity, and legacy.

Our Bioregions

In essence, we live, travel, invest, and do business in and across bioregions that are geographical areas where the natural and cultural elements are viewed as a whole. This perspective of coherent and interconnected natural forms—land, watersheds, climate, flora, and fauna—including the cultural values of the people who live there, emphasizes the interconnectedness of humans and their environment.

From Vision to Impact

Our Theory of Change charts the path of transformative processes that guide decision-making, test outdated assumptions, cultivate bioregional partnerships, and facilitate impactful, regenerative, long-term change through 5 pillars of Living Design:

  • Bioregional Hubs – place-based centers of regeneration
  • Business Incubators – ventures aligned with multi-capital regenerative prosperity
  • Ecological Restoration – restoring ecosystems and watersheds
  • Cultural Revitalization – renewing traditions, wisdom, and identity
  • Multi-Capital Value Creation – integrating ecological, cultural, social, and financial returns

At the heart of every Living Design Hub is a situation specific Profit–Impact Model. A portion of the profits is reinvested in community systems, including renewable energy, wellness hubs, and local enterprises. Growth is not extractive; it is regenerative.

A World of Global Regeneration

Living Design International is scaling across continents, with each hub rooted in its own bioregion, culture, and ecology. Together, form a global network of unique bioregions that model local and global regeneration.
