Video of the week: What makes a place beautiful?
It's not what you think!
"What makes buildings and cities beautiful, and why is beauty so important? How to design for beauty? I was always wondering why everything was getting so ugly, and why beauty doesn't seem to be valued anymore. So in this video, we take a deep dive into the topic of beauty - to hopefully learn some lessons from it. From the design disconnect to biophilia and deeper brain structures, no stone is left unturned to solve the puzzle: how can we build more beautiful, and why does that matter?"
