Ideal city
Let’s start by thinking of wellbeing as the achievement of an improved quality of life
– a function of ‘activities’
A cup …
… holds coffee
The primary function = “to hold coffee”
A secondary function … to be food
= Satisfaction
Use of resources
= Achievement
Aspiration Satisfaction
= Achievement
Aspiration x Use of resources Value
Aspiration is the first step on the path to Wellbeing – so it is at least constant
Value = Functionality Cost Engineering
