This is an image of the border between the slums of a colombian city and a rich section of the city. In his site description, Brandon uses it to argue his case that there is a clear disparity between the rich and the poor in the built environment and it certainly does works for his argument. However, i found that the image can also be used to highlight the negative impact this site can have on the mental health of that city’s citizens, particularly the ones that live in the slums, having to everyday look at the stark disparity between them and their rich neighbors just over the wall.

This is an annotated bibliographic entry written by a Emir Talundzic which analyzes a blog written by Cecile Cremer that talks about the problem that arises when slum areas are ignored in mexican cities by the media, which only portrays the nice looking resorts. Again, this blog can be used to argue that the complete lack of attention toward fixing the slums can be detrimental to both the physical and mental health of those that live there because they continue to live in poverty and continue to have to deal with all the problems that arise from it.

This entry is an annotated bibliography which analyzes an article written by Mark Lamarr which talks about the direct consequences the built environment can have on one’s physical health. And example that is highlighted is how the excessive use of cars and non-active use of transportation in urban environments can lead to an increase in obesity in these areas which in turn contributes to a number of other physical and mental health problems.

- I chose these sources because they talk about about how an environment can have negative effects on a person just like the claim. For example from the first article color affects your mood and also the possessions around you do too. Sometimes the things in your home give you an illusion. You can get bad energy based on the Feng Shui in the room as well. In my second source it talks about the negative environment in atlanta and how that can affect you because we live there and we see crazy thing and people on a day to day basis.

This shows how homelessness is existent, but the health conditions are also drastic; this is seen by many in Atlanta being the poor, and the poor living conditions that exist; this affects the physical and mental health of any person. This source can be used to show Atlanta has a bad exterior environment that could affect a person’s physical and psychological health.

This shows how the design of the Woodruff Arts Center exterior excludes the lower class and homeless with the benches, It does not open up with any art at the beginning in general not having a very welcoming entrance. Atlanta does the exact same thing, in its architectural design it excludes many people at least cars from turning a certain direction, making it more stressful and mentally frustrating for some making it unhealthy; it used to be even worse before with the way they segregated the population before, creating many negative effects psychologically and more.

This shows how natural open space enhances learning, then if it was in a gigantic building where it is abstract and the mind cannot relax and indulge on the learning. Atlanta’s urban life, with almost all buildings, barely any “green” space can be more depleting for the mind, because it constraints the brain, while the green space allows for more rest, less “attentional fatigue” and allows for a more comprehensive profound learning. The source shows how useful it can be to know what is mentally depleting and a better alternative.

It talks talks about how a city with more buildings, more roads and less nature, give off many negative effects; Atlanta is one of these cities where more construction of buildings and roads are happening creating more car accidents since more cars would pass through, less walking occurs so more obesity is likely, CO2 is being emitted more and more which is not healthy; with all those chemicals in the air, and more negative effects, Atlanta’s exterior is bad for our mental and physical health. This is useful because it shows what is actually happening in the built environment where it is mostly urban.

Pucher, John, and Lewis Dijkstra. “Promoting Safe Walking and Cycling to Improve Public Health: Lessons From The Netherlands and Germany.”American Journal of Public Health 93.9 (2003): 1509–1516. Print.
This talks about how to improve walking and cycling in major cities. This could be related to Atlanta in how improving walk ways and cycling parts could make it safer and also for people to exercise more to become more physically active. However, the way Atlanta is constructed, it is purely for cars to pass through, with huge buildings, and very worn out roads making the exterior bad for the people due to the accidents where people could get run over and people are more likely to become obese since cars are the main ways of navigation instead of walking. This is helpful to show how Atlanta’s exterior is bad physically and mentally because we become more relaxed navigating in cars instead of walking making obesity more likely and also because of the risk of danger created by being run over making it a bigger obstacle to walk and making us more unhealthy.

In Brandon’s blog, he talks about what the article talked about in how the built environment has effected our health from the 20th to 21st century. It shows how we have become less and less healthy due to construction of highways and because of more accessibility of cars, thus having more obese people. I could relate to how Atlanta’s exterior built environment is doing the same thing making it bad for our physical health and creating more health issues this way.

In this blog post Emir talks about how people have freedom to choose whether or not to be unique. People who feel included generally have product loyalty but then the others that feel excluded do not have product loyalty. In saying this, since Emir talked about how Atlanta’s advertising and products can exclude people especially those who do not have product loyalty; this makes Atlanta’s exterior environment bad for people who are more sensitive, making them more mentally and emotionally a wreck since they would feel excluded.

- Source of Evidence: http://sites.gsu.edu/tharvey12/2016/03/06/interior-built-environment/
Evidence 1.
Within this interior built environment description of Georgia State’s student center, there are pieces of evidence that back up the claim of how these interior spaces relieve mental and physical ill-effects of the city’s exterior environment. Tiffany’s records state that inside the student center, the walls are lined with framed paintings that add color and variety to the environment which results in the atmosphere of the interior space to feel more comfortable and relaxing to the mind for students. This is evidence that such interior spaces relieve individuals mentally from the homelessness, dirtiness, and ill effects of poverty that is displayed right outside in Atlanta’s exterior built environment.
Evidence 2.

Evidence 2.
The 10th annotated bibliography provides great evidence to help sustain and provide evidence to the claim. This annotated bibliography summaries the article called, “The Architects of Modern Atlanta’s Design is Human Event Talk Contemporary Design.” This article emphasizes how the interior of buildings is misleading to what is in out in the exterior environment of the city. It states that the interior of buildings make people feel safe because of the beautiful design of these elegant buildings, but when you step outside you can easily notice the homelessness and poverty stricken neighborhoods. This is evidence that interior spaces mentally and psychologically remove you from the realistic effects of the exterior environment.
- Source of Evidence: http://sites.gsu.edu/ddickens3/2016/03/07/rialto-lobby-music/
Evidence 3.
This is a recording of the lobby music inside of the Rialto Center. The interior of the Rialto Center is beautifully designed with red and gold designed carpeting and jazz music consistently playing in the background. The recording of the music playing in the background is soothing, elegant, and puts you in a mental state of peacefulness and happiness. This is evidence that this specific interior space is purposely designed to transform the mental state you are in and to negate the ill effects the exterior built environment of the city has on one’s psychological feelings.

- These sources show that living in the right neighborhood can make your life easier and better. Even if the neighborhood is bad, there are people who try to make it better for your well being. People usually think what makes a neighborhood bad is the people, which is not the case. It’s usually because the area is still growing or isn’t popular or does not have popular businesses or shopping districts that make it better.
