This week we’re diving into the world of human-centered architecture and its profound impact on brain health with Dr. Tuwanda Green, Adjunct Instructor in the School of Architecture at Virginia Tech. Before getting her PhD, Dr. Green ran her own architecture firm for over 20 years, working primarily in commercial and government buildings, where her experience in military housing and facilities greatly informed her practice. Dr. Green believes that a science-minded and data-driven approach to biophilic architecture is the key for achieving greater scale, that the built environment plays a major role in human wellbeing, and that all architecture students should understand basic human biology.
