Beauty and design I

A physical space in which design principles align with an organization's core cultural values can positively impact employees' mood and morale. Integrating aesthetically pleasing elements into a space can help building occupants derive a measure of comfort or joy from their surroundings.

This feature is derived from the Beauty and Spirit Imperative of the Living Building Challenge and strives to construct thoughtfully designed environments that positively impact the mood and comfort level of occupants.
