But do they all provide the same benefits, or are some better than others? What specific attributes set some green spaces apart? Can we objectively measure their impact on mental health and well-being? If so, how do we use this evidence to guide the design of mentally healthy cities?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Contemplative Landscape Model unveils the path to answer these questions. Rooted in landscape architecture and neuroscience, this innovative concept is described for the first time in an extended format, offering a deep dive into contemplative design and the science behind it. In the face of the global mental health crisis and increasing disconnection from nature, design strategies for creating healthier urban environments are what our cities so sorely need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNeuroscience for Designing Green Spaces\u003c\/em\u003e delves into the neuroscience behind contemplative landscapes, their key spatial characteristics, and practical applications of the Contemplative Landscape Model through case studies from around the world. Landscape architects, urban planners, students, land managers, and anyone interested in unlocking the healing power of landscapes will find inspiration here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607293870316,"sku":"9781032280622","price":318.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781032280622-neuroscience-for-designing-green-spaces.jpg?v=1778159485"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/agnieszka-olszewska-guizzo.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
