We may be more impacted by the spaces we inhabit than we realize. Everything from our access to light, to how we experience acoustics, has the potential to contribute to our well-being, and our relationships. Today we speak with architecture professors Roger Richmond and Eric Stark about the work they are doing in this area, and how they are educating the next generation of Maine architects about these important concepts.
