The built environment affects our physical, mental and social
well-being. Here renowned professionals from practice and academia
explore the evidence from basic research as well as case studies to
test this belief. They show that many elements in the built
environment contribute to establishing a milieu which helps people
to be healthier and have the energy to concentrate while being free
to be creative. The health and well-being agenda pervades society
in many different ways but we spend much of our lives in buildings,
so they have an important role to play within this total picture.
This demands us to embrace change and think beyond the conventional
wisdom while retaining our respect for it. Creating the Productive
Workplace shows how we need to balance the needs of people and the
ever-increasing enabling technologies but also to take advantage of
the healing powers of Nature and let them be part of environmental
design. This book aims to lead to more human-centred ways of
designing the built environment with deeper meaning and achieve
healthier and more creative, as well as more productive places to
work.
