| dc.description.abstract | Individuals spend so many hours every day in their work spaces of different kinds. Different people have different needs in term of the quality of the space in which they are working. As a result it's important to provide a variety of spaces for people to be able to choose from and spend their work day in that space, or choose to transition in between spaces with different qualities during the day. This can positively affect employees' efficiency, productivity and even mental health. The main idea here is to design different spaces with different degrees of openness. These spaces start from being completely closed to completely open and just being defining by a single wall, roof or floor. And it also include every other degree of openness between these two states and having different combinations of walls, roofs and floors. | en |
| dc.description.abstractgeneral | In Betweenness is about how to choose our position as designers when we are making changes into the earth to build livable spaces for human kind. We are surrounded by different In-betweennesses every day in indoor or outdoor spaces. Being aware of how to use this condition can make us better at forming stronger connections to nature, respecting the earth and following its movements, have more adaptability in our built environments, and having more transition, continuity and mobility in our spaces. This project is a work space building focused on health in architecture. considering biophilic design guidelines and active design guidelines I was focused on designing an adaptable workspace and finding design solutions for encouraging users to follow a healthier lifestyle, be more productive and motivated. | en |
