It poses the challenge of designing buildings as nature designs.  How do you create a building that harvests all its own water, produces all its own energy, and manages all its own waste-water on-site.  These are just 3 of the 7 requirements for a fully certified living building.\n<\/p>\n<p>There are currently 3 projects that have received full certification under the Living Building Challenge, with 4 others having been partially certified.  As at October 2014, there are 90 projects currently in some phase of design, construction or operation. <sup id=\"cite_ref-1\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"#cite_note-1\">[1]<\/a><\/sup>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"panel iDevice\">\n\t<div class=\"panel-heading idevice-heading\">\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pedagogicalicon\" alt=\"activity\" src=\"https:\/\/course.oeru.org\/csf101\/wp-content\/themes\/oeru_course\/idevices\/Icon_activity.png\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<h2>Video activity<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"plainlinks floatright\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425px\" height=\"239px\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gSMecC6pcGo?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<ol>\n<li> Watch this short video of Jason F.
