| dc.description.abstract | Understanding whether the mere sight of architecture can create behavioral responses or not is critical to an architect. If an architect knows what intentional response they want from the inhabitants of their design, then they could decide from a variety of design options depending on the sensory responses for each type of space. The strategy to finding out if architecture can influence behavior is to assess how the users actually respond and behave in particular environments. Sensory responses generally involve color, odor, illumination, vibration, etc. and are usually learned responses based on culture. In this context, the philosophical framework for research is simply empirical. The research analysis is done to determine if there is a relationship between space and how it may influence a person's energy and activity level. Studying children in their childcare center is a good proposition because children are sill adapting to culture and we can get to the root of behavioral responses. Eventually the information found will be used in a thesis as a tool to evaluate whether architecture can assist in a multi purpose health and wellness living center. This center will promote spiritual wellness as well as losing weight and maintaining health. | en_US |
