Material matters: Navigating the human impact of materials in construction
16 May 2024
About the event
We spend 90% of our time indoors and yet many have little understanding of how the material specifications in our environments are impacting our health and wellbeing. The link between the spaces we occupy and human health is crucial; from the healing power of nature and the need for natural light to the impact specification has on the air we breathe. This session will look to explore the compelling call for human-centred design; hearing from experts in the industry as they share research and case studies that exemplify unrivalled inclusivity and put humans back at the heart of design.
