How does the space we inhabit transform us?

Architecture · City · Health

The built environment is not a backdrop: it is a direct determinant of health. A street, a park or a home can make the people who inhabit it ill or well. My work is to translate the scientific evidence on that relationship into concrete criteria for those who design, plan and manage space.
