The science of healthy buildings

In a post-pandemic world, the health and wellbeing of occupants in our built environment has become an increasingly important topic of conversation. The science behind biophilic design shows us that particular design features, materials and methods can evoke certain feelings in occupants, enhancing their experience of wellbeing in different spaces. But why does this happen and how can we apply this to our work in the built environment today? Hosted by Jennifer Smart, Head of Sustainability Programmes, Built Environment Smarter Transformation.
