Siân Moxon

Siân Moxon is an Associate Professor of Sustainable Architecture at London Metropolitan University's School of Art, Architecture and Design. She leads the university's London Met Lab environment challenge and the Education Declares initiative within her school. Her work focuses on urban rewilding, as exemplified by her award-winning Rewild My Street campaign, which promotes biodiversity in urban spaces through architectural design strategies.

Her research explores the intersection of nature and urban environments, addressing challenges like 'nature-deficit disorder' and reconciling human perceptions of wildness with ecological benefits. Key topics include spatial design for biodiversity, health and safety in rewilded areas, and aesthetic considerations for urban rewilding.

Moxon's contributions include visual tools like 'vision drawings' and 'pattern drawings' to persuade communities of rewilding's benefits. Her work emphasizes both ecological restoration and societal engagement, advocating for manageable, aspirational steps toward urban biodiversity.
