Introduction
We are all in a place of how we love to have our own space. Depending upon how you grew up you had your own toys, your own side of the room, your own place refuge. According to the text, “Scientific research by place scientist has documented patterns in how we interact with our world and after they uncover these patters in how humans respond to spaces, place scientist can apply this information, collaborating with people designing places and products” (Augustin,
2009).
