Built environment surrounds us for 90% of our lives but only now are we realising its influence on the environment; our health; and how we think; feel and behave both individually and socially.Spirit & Place shows how to work towards a sustainable environment through socially inclusive processes of placemaking; and how to create places that are nourishing psychologically and physically; to soul and spirit as well as body. This books unique arguments identify important; but often unrecognised; principles and illustrate their applicability in a wide range of situations; price-ranges and climates. It shows how to reconcile the apparently incompatible demands of environmental; economic and social sustainability; how to moderate climate to make places of delight; and realign social pressures so places both support society and maximise economic viability. Thought provoking and easy to understand; Christopher Day uses everyday examples to relate his theories to practice and our experience.
