Can Architecture Make Us Sick?
Manage episode 431443157 series 2981357
Can architecture not only shape our surroundings but also extend our lives? Join us as we explore this profound question with Julia, a pioneering architect whose nearly 30 years of experience have led her to uncover the deep connections between our built environments and our health. Julia Contaldo takes us on a journey through the historical influences on architectural wellness, from ancient Feng Shui practices to today's innovations that aim to replicate the benefits of natural settings within our urban spaces. Discover how integrating health and wellness into the core of architectural design may be key to addressing modern challenges like the diseases of aging.
In this segment, we dive into the world of WELL certification, an emerging standard that assesses buildings for water and air quality, light exposure, acoustics, and more to promote human health. Julia doesn't hold back on discussing the limitations of these certifications, such as their exclusion of fast food and the urgent need for better-designed social spaces to alleviate loneliness. Gain insights from the latest wellness architecture conference, and get excited about Julia's upcoming projects, including a YouTube channel where she'll unbox wellness products and give tours of spaces optimized for well-being. This episode promises a fresh perspective on how architecture can be a crucial component of preventative healthcare.
