Description
The Open University comes to Channel 4 with a major new series, as Tom Dyckhoff explores how we shape buildings - and how their designs shape us. In the first episode, Home, Dyckhoff explores how t...he design of our homes works secretly to influence our behaviour. Light, room size, layout, proportion and materials all have measurable effects on our lives. So why do we accept the smallest windows and the smallest room sizes in Europe? And what can we do about it?
