Recipes for Urban Happiness : Design for Community Well-being Paperback / softback
by Jenny Donovan
Paperback / softback
Description
The experiences we enjoy, endure, or miss out on are influenced by what our surroundings allow and invite us to do.
Just like our food diet, our experience diet influences our health and so our chances of finding happiness and fulfilling our potential.
A healthy experience diet offers inspiration, reassurance, delight, and play.
It nurtures physical, cognitive, and emotional health, builds resilience, and fosters confidence and self-esteem.
An unhealthy experience diet lacks these things and consigns people to lives diminished in quantity and quality.
Recipes for Urban Happiness offers an innovative way of looking at the relationship between people and place and redefines what good urban design is.
The book outlines what designers and non-designers can do to create urban places where nurturing behaviours are both possible and preferable.
Recipes for Urban Happiness will be relevant to public health, community development, and design practitioners, as well as students and academics.
