Recenzii

"The authors have written a groundbreaking book addressing the emerging trend of designing for wellness, not only in health care settings, but also in places for living, work, learning, play and worship. This book speaks not only to architecture and urban planning, but also strongly emphasizes the benefit of designed and built environments that enhance the full continuum of wellness supporting the body, mind, and spirit. There is a pragmatic flavor to the book offering a wealth of examples, serving as a useful reference for those who develop, plan, design and build human places. I strongly recommend this book to students, faculty, health professionals, planning and design professionals and the public at large."

"Wellness Architecture and Urban Design is a clarion call for reimagining our future – a future where design is empathetic, inclusive, and sustainable. It offers an enlightening journey through the principles and practices of biophilic and wellness design, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the future of urban living and environmental stewardship. The book offers a groundbreaking exploration of the profound relationship between our physical spaces and well-being. This work is a rich tapestry, weaving together historical insights, current challenges, and visionary solutions in the realm of design and architecture. It delves deep into the human condition, highlighting how environmental factors and human activities shape our health and happiness. Drawing on years of extensive research and diverse global perspectives, this book is not merely academic; it is a practical guide to transforming our living environments into catalysts for holistic wellness."

"Wellness Architecture and Urban Design is a transformative journey that redefines our understanding of the spaces we inhabit. This book beautifully encapsulates how intentional architecture and placemaking can catalyze wellness on many levels. It's about fostering communities, nurturing the spirit, and inspiring a ripple effect of health and happiness. As Phillip Tabb and Lahra Tatriele share their extensive knowledge, they provide a vision that compels us to rethink our environments and their potential to elevate our lives. Having recently moved from the incessant buzz of New York City to the tranquil hamlet of Mado in Serenbe, my family and I have experienced firsthand the profound impact that connection to nature and thoughtful design can have on well-being. We've become calmer, more balanced, and deeply connected, realizing the stark contrast between our past and present living environments. I am grateful for the insights this book offers and believe them to be an indispensable guide for anyone yearning to create spaces that resonate with our deepest need for connection, wellness, and harmony."

"Fivelements Retreat Bali was decades ahead in its quest to incorporate biophilic design principles that nurture the relationships between humans and nature — relationships that heal and sustain life itself.  The Fivelements philosophy became the definition of a new eco-luxury experience that positively impacts all seven dimensions of wellness. The founders of Fivelements Retreat understood that true wellness is inseparable from nature, and this shows in every aspect of the resort. From the moment guests enter this awe-inspiring sanctuary, located along Bali’s sacred Ayung River, they will experience a holistic approach to wellness, from impeccably designed rooms to exquisite cuisine to unique connections with local healers. I cannot think of a better place to experience the true meaning of wellness design or to understand why it is vital to our industry."
