Architect Tye Farrow has beautifully translated, and has put into practice, what will apply to design professionals who desire their aesthetic decisions to be grounded in evidence that the human experience in built spaces will be enriched.""--Frederick Marks, Visiting Scholar, Salk Institute for Biological Studies, and Co-founder and Past-president, Academy of Neuroscience for Architecture ""Constructing Health is a breath of fresh air that beautifully presents clear and compelling ideas about the relationship of mind, body, spirit, placemaking and health. Tye Farrow's projects express his architectural prodigious imagination and his long-standing exploration of curved, sustainable, and beautiful wood structures. Bravo!""--Bruce Kuwabara, Founding Partner, KPMB Architects ""In a passionate celebration of how the designed environment provides a context and foundation for human health and wellbeing, this book underpins Tye Farrow's place as one of the inspirational architects of modern times. Challenging us to think more deeply about our relationship with the built environment in this book, few architects have applied interdisciplinary thinking across the fields of design and health and at the intersection of art and science as powerfully as Tye Farrow.""--Marc Sansom, founder, SALUS Global Knowledge Exchange ""The science is clear: integrating neuroscience and architecture can help designers create spaces that optimize physical and neurological wellbeing. In Constructing Health, Tye Farrow deftly explores the transformative power of intentional design, showcasing actionable strategies to transform the places where we live, work, learn, and heal. He advocates for salutogenic design principles that prioritize generosity, vitality, and human connection -- qualities that are much needed in today's global society.--Susan Magsamen, Founder and Executive Director, International Arts + Mind Lab (IAM Lab), Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine ""Here is an eloquent and powerful book that teaches us how we should view architecture: not by what it is, but by what it does. An acutely needed and beautiful game changer.""--Laura Arpiainen, Professor of Health and Wellbeing Architecture, Aalto University ""The book beautifully illustrates Architect Tye Farrow's remarkable contributions to Salutogenic architecture, highlighting its vital role in advancing health and well-being. Farrow's pioneering efforts spanning several decades, tracing his evolution from hospital design in Canada to achieving global recognition in Salutogenic architecture. Farrow's impact is marked by widespread recognition and international acclaim, underscoring the significant influence he has exerted in the field. His multiple awards from the Academy further affirm his excellence standing within the architectural community.""--Alan Dilani, Founder, International Academy for Design and Health ""Tye Farrow is a brilliant and accomplished architect who has added to his exciting built work with a delightful, richly illustrated book that asks important questions. Farrow challenges us to create a world of design that actively supports optimal health. He shows us how human neurological and therapeutic value can be created by deliberately enriched environments. Don't miss this one!""--Kirk Hamilton, Professor Emeritus of Architecture, Texas A&M University ""Tye Farrow's book condenses an astonishing but also actual investigation of how architects should transform their scientific awareness to set up a better environment for humans. It is the best landing of salutogenic theory on the architectural world.""--Davide Ruzzon, Architect and Founder of NAAD Neuroscience Applied to Architectural Design, Iuav University of Venice, and TA tuning arch, Italy" Author InformationTye Farrow is a senior partner at Farrow Partners Architects. Working at the intersection of architecture and neuroscience, he is a world-recognized pioneer in tackling how our creations either give or cause health.
