Sensory Landscape Design and the 7 Senses with Tobias Volbert
Manage episode 288128969 series 2899356
The sharing economy is in full swing but you may not know just how good it is for the environment and for our physical and mental health.
There is so much opportunity in getting the design right in our public parks, community squares, gardens and our neighbourhood streets. And we’re now moving from a place of accessibility to inclusivity ensuring everyone from a toddler to an elderly person can find enjoyment and comfort in these spaces.
Today, to help me explore this thoughtful topic is Tobias Volbert, who is a landscape architect and co-founder and spokesperson of the 7 Senses Foundation.
Tobias details the 7 Senses and why sensory design is crucial to our spaces. We look at the benefits of engaging with our community and mother nature and how we can all be a part of the design process from our backyard to our neighbourhood skatepark.
I hope you enjoy the episode.
