After analyzing Imperfect Health: The Medicalization of Architecture, we understood health in a much broader spectrum. Architecture in its loosest connotations can be defined as both the built and virtual realities of our time. Using this framework, we have classified problems under four broad categories: Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large.
The future of our designed space is looking increasingly bright as we solve many of the problems displayed below. The role of design serves ultimately as a catalyst for positive change, in order to secure a safer and healthier future for our societies and generations to come.

Defined by our immediate surroundings, our health is affected on a personal level by what we eat, clothes we wear and things we come across in our daily lives.
Local spaces include the confines of our homes and the buildings we inhabit.
Urban spaces are defined as shared public areas in cities and the built environment.
Looking beyond countries, global space includes the entire planet Earth and beyond.
