Healing Architecture 2004–2017: Forschung und Lehre – Research and Teaching

What does architecture have to do with health? Can architecture support the healing process? At the Technical University of Berlin, the department "Architecture for Health" researches and teaches how architecture could influence health. Applying the variable "health" to all areas of life is the focus of the department's teaching and research work. The term "Healing Architecture" represents the courage to think outside the box, to explore and to go beyond conventional conceptions of architecture.
