In class yesterday we gathered into three groups based on our reading that we chose and discussed the insight that we got from the text and why people chose it personally. I found my classmates insight very interesting because I was not expecting their reasons to vary so much. Although most of them said that they liked the broadness of this brief, it was interesting how much their personal background/relation to city living impacted their final choice.
I have teamed up with Georgia and Hannah for this project I know them but have not worked with them before so I am excited to work with them.
In preparation for next class I did some further research for stress in the city to gain further insight. From the reading what I, and most people that read this reading, found stood out was the idea that the presence of nature reduces stress. So I looked into it further and found quite a bit of information that that backs this idea. As humans are animals having our natural habitat present is something familiar to us which in turn is calming.
