摘要：As other authors of this series on architectural education,I share a dismay towards the present state of architectural practices. Being a practitioner of ecology,I am interested in (and upset about) the impact and the sustainability of human activities and,naturally,that includes the construction of buildings and other structures such as dams,roads or railways (Borda-de-Água et al.,2017). But what interests me in architecture is not so much its impact in the physical world but on our psychological health,i.e.,in the quality of our lives,through the sheer inhumanity of the environments being created. By inhuman environments I mean environments that they are devoid of some basic characteristics that are intrinsically needed for human psychological well-being (Sussman and Hollander,2015).
