Discovery Institute

健康是幸福的契機，建築是實現幸福的橋樑。隨著全球陷入能源危機，地球永續已成為國際重視的議題，同時也因為疫情的衝擊，讓人們更加重視健康這項議題。在這場大變局中，「建築」扮演著塑造我們生活環境的關鍵角色。建築不僅是提供我們居所的空間，更是影響生活品質、身心健康的元素。而這種影響力，需要以更專業、深度的角度來理解。▶何謂健康建築？健康建築的概念由國際健康建築研究所（International WELL Building Institute簡稱IWBI）於2004年推出一套健康建築標準，提出全球不同類別的健康建築設計準則，以醫學研究為準則，從人的健康系統需求對應建築物設計來提升空間舒適感。本書由健康建築發展內涵到國際發展趨勢，再延伸至健康建築的相關領域，最後邁向幸福健築，完整介紹健康建築的發展與趨勢。
