dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: Humanity's rapid urbanization and the consequent alterations to natural habitats have led to an imbalance in the Earth's delicate ecosystems, resulting in biodiversity loss and ecological deterioration. To address these pressing challenges, rewilding has emerged as a promising approach, emphasizing the restoration and revitalization of ecosystems through the reintroduction of native species and natural processes. This thesis focuses on rewilding as a potential solution to preserve biodiversity and foster sustainable coexistence with nature in urban spaces, specifically in Berlinches The aim of this research is to explore how rewilding can be applied to urban architecture in Berlin to create sustainable and nature-conscious spaces. The methodology involves a three-part approach: understanding rewilding as a concept through a literature review, identifying Berlin's potential for blurring the boundaries between nature and architecture, and translating these potentials into a theoretical design application. The literature review covers the period between 2015-2019, providing insights into rewilding as a transformative concept. The analysis of Berlin's ruderal aesthetic examines its potential for future wildness and its relevance to urban densification. Finally, a theoretical design project envisions conserving Berlin's spontaneous natures while accommodating residential spaces, enabling coexistence and thriving of both humans and nature. Keywords: Rewilding, biodiversity loss, ecological deterioration, urban architecture, sustainable spaces, nature-conscious design, Berlin, ruderal aesthetic, urban densification, theoretical design applicationen
