Abstract
Architects and designers of inhabited spaces construct barriers to the external environment that are both physical and psychological. This paper reflects upon the withdrawal of contemporary Western cultures into increasingly mechanised and artificial spaces, limiting experience of the outside. Could alternative modes of design thinking open the perceived boundaries of built environments to what exists beyond? A fresh approach surpassing the current limitations of static architectural and interior design practice towards sustainable futures requires further examination.
