You might have heard of Clubhouse, the social audio app. In this episode, you get to listen in to the Architecting Club's Architects as Healers: Buildings as Medicine weekly room as we talk Blue Urbanism.
- What if we could look at the components of Blue Zones and reconstruct them in modern urban environments?
- To create healthy urban spaces, you need to understand the exposome: a combination of social determinants to health and physical environmental conditions.
- Blue Urbanism includes clean air, access to nature, quiet, dark skies at night, safe water and healthy food, and opportunities to form broad social networks using active design.
- Midscapes are a great way to create access to nature while providing shelter from the elements to lower carbon footprints and create more pedestrian access.
- You can actively promote blue urbanism in your community even if you aren't an urban design expert. Activism means buildign awareness, not being an expert.
- Join us each week as we host guest experts on topics related to how the built environment can enhance wellness.
Stay Inspired,
Angela
