Dr. Mitchell Joachim, founder of Brooklyn-based Terreform ONE, talks success and sustainability.
“I’m passionate about the
power design has to create change,” he says. Throughout his career, Dr.
Joachim—a trained architect with degrees from MIT, Harvard, and
Columbia—has explored progressive solutions to global sustainability
issues.
In 2006, he co-founded Terreform ONE
(which stands for Open Network Ecology), a Brooklyn-based non-profit
think-tank dedicated to boundary-breaking ideas of how humans can live,
work, and get around in better harmony with our planet. Joachim and
Terreform ONE have been widely lauded for their work in the realms of
sustainable habitat—including Fab Tree Hab, a housing concept that
creates dwellings out of living trees—and for pioneering a new
profession they have dubbed “Urbaneering,” which will reinvent the
concept of urban planning.
