Changing attitudes towards the mental wellbeing of early career Architectural Technology professionals

Research output: Contribution to journal › Review article

Abstract

Architectural Technologists by nature think holistically, considering the health and wellbeing of those occupying the spaces they design. This can include investigating concepts such as biophilic design and benchmarking schemes against the WELL Building Standard. However, it is sadly ironic that the health and mental wellbeing of young or early career architectural technology professionals new into the industry, and often tasked with designing such spaces, is sometimes neglected. I undertook a review of literature for a new report that I have authored entitled Changing attitudes towards the mental wellbeing of early career Architectural Technology professionals which has identified graduates of today as being of a generation which have a high potential for mental health issues.
