You are invited to the film screening “BIOPHILIC DESIGN – The Architecture of Life” made by Dr. Stephen R. Kellert, based on the result of his research. Especially, he goes to the building for filming and interviews architects and people living there. We will visit many types of buildings from houses, schools, hospitals, offices to residential areas… and witness the advantage of associating architect with nature.
“BIOPHILIC DESIGN – The Architecture of Life” is not a film about a school of architecture, but a convincing analysis that people can not live without nature!

The film will be screened with Vietnamese subtitles.

Biophilic Design at London Museum of Architecture

Well Built: Designing for Health and Wellbeing in Architecture

Dates: 1 November – 29 November 2016
​Opening hours: 10am - 7pm
Venue: 10 Thurloe Place, South Kensington, SW7 2RZ London
This exhibition is FREE to attend

This November, the Museum of Architecture is launching Well Built: Designing for Health and Wellbeing in Architecture. The exhibition traces new ways of thinking about health and wellbeing beyond the design of traditional therapeutic environments towards a more integrated approach that includes everyday spaces. The exhibition is divided into five different sections, each of which examines a specific building typology – hospitals and health centres, housing, workplaces, schools and public spaces. Demonstrating the enduring historical relationship between health and the city, Well Built points to the urgent need in reshaping our assumptions about health, place and space.

Today, as in the past, architects, urban designers, landscape architects and designers have the ability to actively influence our health and wellbeing, with our homes, workspaces and urban areas increasingly being designed to allow us to make better lifestyle choices. Well Built takes this knowledge further by showcasing the growing connections between the traditional public health domain and the built environment. 

The exhibition starts from hospitals as historic health spaces and continues to workplace, education, housing and public space. Projects included in the exhibition range from floating lidos to pop-up cultural centres for the elderly, alternative healthcare spaces such as Maggie’s Centres to new co-housing schemes. Architects involved include prominent UK-based practices: 

Foster and Partners - Studio Octopi - DSDHA - RCKa - Duggan Morris - Featherstone Young -SelgasCano - NBBJ - Feilden Fowles - Levitt Bernstein - Mole Architects - PRP - Penoyre & Prasad - The Decorators - Buckley Gray Yeoman - Architecture PLB - J&L Gibbons - Arup - 4M Group - Medical Architecture - Studio Tilt - Keppie Design - Gensler - Hassell - Contents Design - Erect - J & L Gibbons - The Bartlett School of Architecture and more. ​

The exhibition is sponsored by Saint-Gobain (Jewson and Ecophon) and 4M Group. Museum of Architecture is a proud partner of Brompton Design District.

October Screening: Biophilic Design: The Architecture of LifeFri., Oct. 21, from 7 – 9 p.m., join the conversation on how environmental, biophilic architectural design enhances everyday life. Sit back while this month’s screening of Biophilic Design: The Architecture of Life takes you on a journey of our evolutionary past through history’s most celebrated architecture, all in search of “green architecture” that both decreases environmental impact and enables humans and nature to live together in harmony. The film analyzes excellent examples of biophilic design, from hospitals and schools to office buildings and homes. Biophilic Design: The Architecture of Life will inspire you to seek out healthy and productive habitats surrounded by nature’s finest. Post-film discussion will be led by Vivian Loftness, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University and former Head of the Carnegie Mellon School of Architecture.

​About the Series
Phipps' Environmental Film Series is an exciting monthly event inviting community members to come together to view environmental films and documentaries. Each viewing will be followed by a dynamic discussion with film producers, scientists and environmental advocates, enabling attendees to share thoughts, consider various viewpoints and hear the experts’ perspectives. The series aims to raise awareness of our relationship with the natural environment, and to use film as a platform for conversation, education and positive change. Screenings for the Environmental Film Series will take place on the third Friday of every month from 7 – 9 p.m. in the Botany Hall Auditorium at Phipps. Attendance to these screenings is free with regular admission, but tickets are required; please pick up your free tickets in the Welcome Center starting at 5 p.m. on the day of the film.
