 Objectives

The aim of this CPD event is to equip designers with a basic understanding of the emotional interaction between man and his built environment. This is a discipline not always understood or applied in design and this psychology is not taught at all institutions either. Although it is basic in approach, it could serve as a refresher for those designers with higher formal training as well.
