As communities face growing pressures, such as rapid urbanization and climate change, transitioning to a regenerative built environment is crucial for more sustainable equitable future. Thus, this chapter explores strategies human-centered that addresses the challenges of urbanization, societal needs through biomaterials. This approach focuses on creating housing infrastructure enhances people’s quality life while reducing environmental footprints, prioritizing sustainability, resilience, adaptability changing conditions. Key considerations include indoor air quality, thermal comfort, restoration. Regenerative design principles focus systems restore regenerate natural ecosystems. Emerging innovations, biomaterials, circular economy concepts are fundamental in implementing these principles. By using renewable resources waste, buildings infrastructures can contribute positively rather than depleting it. Finally, case studies will illustrate how impact health, resilience.
