13. Scott Rodwin: Awareness of the Built Environment
Manage episode 198026336 series 1682804
What would you see if you were looking at the world from the point of view of a person in a wheelchair? Or if you're mobility impaired, or blind, or deaf? As architects, we need to learn to look at what kind of physical environment we are creating for people. What's missing? What else could we do here, in this central courtyard, that would make the space better? Students will answer "a fountain," "a garden," "a shaded area where you could study." We could add benches, hammocks–you name it. And then they all start seeing great ideas about the built environment.
Special Guest: Scott Rodwin, Faculty in Environmental Studies.
