Building Code

Building Code

Definition

A set of regulations governing the design, construction, alteration, and maintenance of buildings for safety and functionality.

Interpretation

The rules of the realm. Codes are meant to protect โ€” but sometimes they limit innovation. In Pansophia, we ask: How can regulation evolve to support regeneration, not just restrict it?

Living Invitation

Look up one local building code today. Does it protect life or just liability? Imagine a new code written in service of the Earth.
