In this episode Chris and Ian are joined by Dr Chrystala Psathiti and previous guest Dr Kerstin Sailer.

Kerstin is Professor of the Sociology of Architecture at The Bartlett School, University College London, co-founder of workspace science and design think tank Brainybirdz, and all round space syntax wizard!
Chrystala and Kerstin co-authoroed 'Adolescents’ positive attitudes towards school: a reflection on the spatial configuration of school buildings' (2024) based on Chrystala's comparative research of two secondary schools in Cyprus, to explore the socio-spatial relationship of school layouts to how students feel about their schools. There's loads in this discussion, including Hiller & Hanson's theory of correspondence and non-correspondence, the transferability from a Cypriot school setting to other educational settings, modern workplaces, and hybrid working, and of course yet more examples of the relevance of Harry Potter and Hogwarts to the (wizarding) world of work.
