STAR GUEST Satu Kaleva: Looking for the different dimensions of spaces and spatial planning
I have been attracted to architecture and spatial planning by an interest in how space and man interact. I believe that combining the different perspectives related to man and the environment enriches and opens interesting possibilities for spatial planning. There has been discussion recently within architectural theory on the possibilities and potential for development the built environment offers us – or does not.
Human reality is multidimensional and approachable from many perspectives. For example, interacting psychological, social and neurological dimensions interconnect in the interaction between us and the environment.
Health care spaces have become particular areas of interest to me in the course of my studies of interior design. It can be seen in the discussion related to health care environments how significant the relationship between man and the built environment is. Like man, also a hospital, for example, is a multi-level environmental entity. Against my background of social sciences, of particular interest is how processes supportive of well-being are integrated into spatial planning.
