At Converse, January was dedicated to Jan Term, a month-long intensive course focused on a single subject. Inspired by those college experiences, I dedicated this January to exploring the theme: “Architecture of Well-Being: Inclusivity, Health, and the Spaces We Create.” My goal is to understand how architecture and built environments influence well-being by studying art and design, examining issues in Atlanta, and reflecting on community experiences across the United States. This topic is personal to me because I have always been curious about how our surroundings shape our lives and interactions. I have consistently noticed the differences between the environments I have entered and want to continue articulating my passion for understanding and advocating for inclusive spaces that promote well-being. Below are my thoughts following books, podcasts, music, and experiences that underscore the significance of our built environments in shaping how we feel, move, and interact with the world.
