 Ever since he was a boy, Sim Van der Ryn has marvelled at and
respected nature. The patterns in nature, the relationships, the
beauty.
 His own definition of ecological design is "the art and science of
designing an appropriate fit between the human environment and
the natural world."
 The Ecological Design Institute (EDI) was founded by Van der Ryn
in 1994 and is essentially an outgrowth of the Farallones Institute
 On the university level, there is the Ecological Design Education
Network (EDEN), a three- to 12-month paid internship program
that offers design students the opportunity to learn about ecological
design on the job.
