Drawing from the expertise of prominent academics in their respective fields, this collaborative work takes a sweeping view of the ways we build things, beginning at the scale of products and interiors, to that of regions and global systems. In doing so, 'The Built Environment' answers questions on how we effect and are affected by our environment. More importantly, it shows how the various components of what is made by humans - from products, buildings, landscapes, and cities - are interrelated, and how designers and planners must consider these connections in their work.
