Madlove: Designing the Asylum (ft. James Leadbitter)

Episode 50,   Nov 28, 2016, 01:41 PM

What does good mental health look like? What does it sound like, feel like, smell like and taste like? These are the questions that James Leadbitter has built Madlove on, a utopian design for better mental health spaces. Born from his own experiences in mental health hospitals James asks if there can be a positive way in which to go mad? Plus find out what our listeners think of the 5 senses of mental health, and join in our experiment on how everyday objects can be supportive in all kinds of ways.
