Description

Globally renowned architect Tye Farrow bridges the gap in knowledge between the therapeutic medical world and the design community to reveal how the intentional shaping of our environment can support our physical and neurological well-being. Constructing Health explores recent discoveries in cognitive psychology (the science of the mind) and neuroscience (the science of the brain) to determine how we can form health-giving person-to-place relationships that are similar to healthy and meaningful person-to-person relationships. This richly illustrated and visually captivating book shows how we can intentionally design our environments to make them more generous and help us in our daily lives. This conscious practice not only reduces environmental damage but also enhances physical, societal, and mind health. Farrow offers an engaging and accessible way to discover how we can construct health through specific, measurable design qualities and characteristics to enhance human performance in our cities, our homes, and our places of learning and healing.
