%X There is strong evidence for environmental, economic and social benefits derived through the applied methodology of biophilic design. Early data on the impacts of biophilics provides evidence for the significant increase in urban land and property prices as well as the public value of ecosystem services. The need for urban regeneration has been proposed for cities to prevent the impact of urban sprawl to create more sustainable outcomes in energy, water and waste. To make urban regeneration happen requires an increase in urban amenities so that investment becomes worthwhile.
