Blog #9

For this week’s assignment, I was to attend a webinar and so I joined Turnbull Design Speaker Final Series where the guest speaker Sara Jensen Carr an Assistant Professor in Architecture, Urbanism, and Landscape at Northeastern University. She talked about how design plays a role in resilience to disasters and climate changes. Where designing a building the designer will have to put themselves at the viewpoint of the person that’s living in that area and how will it affect them. The benefits of having a clean neighborhood are where people living in the city have access to healthy housing, fresh air, fresh water, and green space for all. After she talked about how Covid-19 has affected families and that a family of 9 is living in a small apartment in New York having 2 rooms and a living room can affect their health.
