The Healthy Indoors provides a cleverly guided survey of projects that have successfully put the occupants' physical and mental health at the centre of their design. Laying claim to significance beyond that of aesthetics, the 50+ case studies selected for this book are thoroughly presented in a way that appeals to both professionals and enthusiasts alike.
