Implications www. informedesign. umn. edu A Newsletter by InformeDesign. A Web site for design and human behavior research. Healing by Design: Healing Gardens and Therapeutic Landscapes “Quality of life,” “well-being,” and “healing” are phrases that embody concepts being recognized with increasing importance in the 21st-century. Healthcare costs are climbing. Also, in today’s culture we as individuals are having more demanded of each of us to meet expectations—ours, our family’s, and our employer’s/employee’s.

Our goals may differ, but even those of us who concentrate exclusively on growing food are pleased when our gardens are attractive. Typically we also enjoy hands-on approaches to learning new things. Regardless of the scale of our activities, we love to talk about our gardens! Gardeners tend to express deep satisfaction in ways they’ve become more efficient, whether they are procedures or inventions and gadgets, to make various gardening tasks easier or less time consuming.
