I think we need to consider how a young person might feel in such an environment. Just being sustainably desigined does not make prisons for children correct. It’s more forward thinking to have young people sleeping with their parents at least for a while than putting them in cribs. Isolation from each other and the planet are what have gotten us into this mess in the first place. If we felt connected to our planet we would never want to abuse it. This is not a comment on the design but is meant to get us all thinking about that our design programs also need to be thought about more carefully.
