THE STATE OF HOUSING DESIGN 2023 - https://lnkd.in/gyxjDNp2 || PDF: https://lnkd.in/g_9TUWjb The State of Housing Design 2023 is the first book in a new series that reviews national trends, ideas, and critical issues as they relate to residential design. This volume examines recently built housing projects of notable design that address issues of affordability, social cohesion, sustainability, aesthetics, density, and urbanism. Through critical essays, visual content, and a crowdsourced survey of responses, it provides both designers and the general public with an overview of the forces at play in contemporary design of housing.

Let talk cultural appropriation in design Cultural appropriation in interior architecture refers to the practice of borrowing elements from a particular culture without understanding or respecting its significance. It can be a sensitive topic because it can lead to misrepresentation, disrespect, and the erasure of the original cultural context.

Incorporating cultural elements with respect, understanding, and permission from the originating culture can lead to meaningful and authentic design outcomes.

I consistently spruik the idea that space is the biggest influencer of human behaviour. This makes architects, landscape architects, urban designers, and interior designers very valuable in all areas of our lives, including education and health.

If you're short on time, watch the 3-minute video embedded in this article, where Isabella Bower talks about her findings.

Biophilic design, a concept that connects people with nature, blurs the boundaries of indoor and outdoor for a healthier mind and body. Custom-home architects nearly always design site-specific residences that connect with their natural surroundings. For many, the term “biophilic design” simply puts a name to something they have done for their entire careers: embracing nature as part of the design process. Read on ~ https://lnkd.in/gATw-G3p

Exploring the psychology of space: How design shapes human behaviour The psychology of space and design is a fascinating topic that explores how design shapes human behavior. This dynamic field has far-reaching implications for architecture, interior design, urban planning, and beyond. By considering psychological principles, designers and architects create environments that cater to human needs and shape behaviors in meaningful ways.
