Mobilize in a historical moment for planetary regeneration, the re-emergence of regen·era: a story-universe created by the Design Science Studio to scaffold thousands of projects and ideas throughout the decade ahead for a future that is regenerative, equitable and just.
The arrival of the city is celebrated with a summit called regen·era rising: a confluence of immersive experiences, celebrations, talks, workshops, art and surprises - each showcasing the important, powerful and collaborative ways
design, science and story collide. This year the online summit will be June 19-21 and the in person interdependence summit will be July 3-5.
The Design Science Studio is an educational and cultural incubator that empowers creators to imagine and catalyze regenerative futures. As part of the story-universe of regen·era we will be launching coheART 4’s (r)Evolutionary projects, and featuring pARTners from around the planet - each helping co-create and propel the transition to a world that works for ALL of Life.
We do our best to make all of our events accessible.
The online summit has a free ticket option.
There are low-income tickets for the in person summit as well as work trade options.
It’s time for ART that changes History.

This decade will bring about the most needed changes, incredible ideas and (r)Evolutionary projects we’ve ever seen. Many of those stART here.
regen·era is a floating city created by the Design Science Studio, an educational and cultural incubator for that empowers creators to imagine and catalyze regenerative futures that work for all of life.
Our quest is to give birth to the Regenaissance, a cultural emergent movement that seeks to transform the way in which we think and live in society, redefining our relationship with each other and the planet.
regen·era is a city like no other. Our city runs through a synergistic balance of technology and nature. Here, curiosity is virtue and kindness the law. Here, we align with nature, the seasons, the cycles of life, and move in harmony with the living world.
Our city was built through the shared imaginations of hundreds of rEvolutionary co-creators, who all sought to answer the same question…
What does a world that works for ALL of Life look like, feel like?
That world takes all of us. Join us.

what is regen·era?
regen·era is a floating city designed to be the home and heART of the Regenaissance, a cultural and social movement that seeks to comprehensively transform the way in which we think and live in society, redefining our relationship with each other and the planet.
regen·era appeared on Earth in 2021 to show us what is possible within this decade. In our journey to restore ecosystems and bring about the principles of the Design Science Decade, we have woven the city with the principles of our collective quest.
The arrival of the city comes along with an entire week of celebrations, talks, workshops and art that showcases the importance of what’s occurring. This festival is called regen·era rising and you can buy tickets for the virtual summit (June 19-21) here, and the in person interdependence summit (July 3-5) here.
