The real value in environmental design must contribute with integral solutions to education, health, and climate change simultaneously. Through qualitative concurrent data collection, this study reveals patterns with respect to activities of studying vs being social and healthy habits in LEED and non-LEED academic buildings. Using as a base case a WELL-certified building this study compared and contrasted design strategies in the spaces. Through the observations at ENR2 (a LEED Platinum certified building built in 2015) and McClelland Hall (a non-LEED building built in 1994) on The University of Arizona campus, evidence indicates that the difference in the function of LEED vs. non-LEED in higher education spaces is present with respect to activities of studying vs. being social.Description
