Designology How to Find Your PlaceType and Align Your Life With Design Sally Augustin 9781633538825 Books Reviews
- Have you taken a personality-type test in a book or article with what seems like 400 questions? Endless and apparently unnecessary. The author's system has three questions Outgoing or reserved? Do I prefer a plan or am I more easygoing? Do I love to try new things or do I prefer tried and true? Our answers guide us to a what she calls a PlaceType and helps us understand how our environment can make us happier and healthier. And, as the book is written by an environmental psychologist, it's based on scientific research. My personality group (Intellectual) and type (Investigator) really appreciates this approach! There's also a lot of fascinating information about our senses in the environment such as adding the scent of a large, open space such as the ocean makes an indoor space seem larger. Or that heterosexuals who see someone of the opposite gender against a red background find that person more attractive and desirable than when they see the same person against a different colored background.
This is a unique and interesting take on creating our home environment, one that goes beyond shallow personality cliches in that it's based on decades of research and study. I recommend it highly. - This read proved to be quite useful. It is very well written, well laid out and I learned I lot.
