On the Edge of Health and Design

Constructing Health with Tye Farrow (episode 25)


Listen Later

In our January 2025 kick off episode, we interview Tye Farrow, a Canadian architect and author of the book Constructing Health: How the Built Environment Enhances Your Mind’s Health.

Tye has initiated a global “Cause Health” movement aimed at raising expectations for design as the basis for total health, which extends beyond environmental, sustainability and physical health to encompass our mind health. In our conversation, Tye explains how mind health differs from mental health and how the built environment shapes our health for better or for worse. We hope Tye's insights will help you reflect on the environments where you live, work and play!
