People Lab
Vision
We seek to rigorously and empathetically inform the relationship between the places we design and the people that live with them. Through social science research and education, we serve as a bridge between academia and practice, a resource for project teams, and an advocate for evidence-based design and social justice. Our end goal is to create places that are healthy, equitable, just, well-loved, and well-used.
