Ideas on how buildings, and designs for them, can support and improve our lives
{
"text": "
Our design work can have profound influence to connect people to the spaces we create and to one another. In Research + Benchmarking (R+B) Issue 02, our team examines the connections between young learners and their educational environments; libraries and community needs; and health sciences education and real-world practice. We also share how we’re connecting to academia through a new research partnership and even take a look internally at how we can better connect our teams throughout a complex building process in pursuit of high-performance design.
