Designing Spaces for Well-Being:
How Your Home and Work Environment Affect Focus, Mood, and Productivity.
We spend most of our lives in just a handful of spaces — yet we often underestimate how much these environments affect our mental health, focus, creativity, and overall sense of well-being.

• That lurking, invasive feeling that something terrible is about to happen
