Unpacked with Papa
Architect and design researcher Erin Peavey, AIA, illuminates just how big of a role the built environment plays in our social health and wellbeing. In this episode, Erin shares a glimpse into strategies for addressing social connection with the built environment—outlined in the Foundation for Social Connection’s new SOCIAL Framework report that she co-chaired and authored—as well as strategies for designing our own lives for more connection. After all, as Erin puts it, “We are all designers of place. We are all citizens of place.”
