Ornament and Virtue: How our Buildings Shape us by Matthew McNicholas
Could your building make you healthier, smarter, and happier? Join us as Matthew McNicholas, AIA, discusses how Ornament - that which beautifies our built environment and adds grace to our buildings - plays a far more important role in our everyday experience than previously understood or acknowledged. Mr. McNicholas will demonstrate the science-based case for the use of Ornament in architecture, while covering some of its varied benefits for Humanity.
