In the Winter 2022 edition of Living Architecture Monitor (LAM), our managing director Luigi Petito reflects the EU policy innovation is key to increase green infrastructure amid the combined climate, energy and health crisis.
We live in a time of unprecedented social, environmental, and economic change. To manage and hopefully guide the transition, and to address the multiple challenges it raises, particularly when it comes to the climate, we need innovation and resilience.
Resilience and innovation go hand in hand. We show resilience in our capacity to face multiple crises, for example the combined climate, energy and health crisis, adapt and rethink what we consider taken for granted. When we innovate, we go beyond resilience, bringing forward new ideas, methods and devices that provide solutions.

The LAM magazine is a quarterly publication first published in 1998. It features in-depth interviews with leaders in the green building movement, opinions, research, and green roof and wall project profiles. Living architecture is the integration of living, organic systems with non-living, inorganic systems in, on, or around buildings. Living architecture is an important step to reconcile people and nature in the modern built environment.
In January 2020 we were asked to set up and run the European Chapter of the World Green Infrastructure Network. Another exciting task to improve the quality of urban areas and help cities to reconnect with nature.
