37m 59s | 2024 Mar 22
In this episode, Cherise is joined by Sam Batchelor, AIA, LEED AP – Partner at designLAB Architects in Boston, Massachusetts. They discuss the Quinnipiac University Health and Wellness Center in Hamden, Connecticut.

Uniting three previously separate departments – health, counseling, and recreation – the Quinnipiac Health and Wellness Center marks a groundbreaking integration, complemented by innovative programs in social and nutritional education.

At the inception of the design journey, the creative team advocated for the incorporation of biophilic design principles, drawing from documented advantages for the mind, body, and spirit.
