I believe that if we could truly hear the voices of the people who will interact with the building over the next 20 years, even if we could hear those voices at the drawings, we would make better choices . https://www.solvecast.com/articles/detail/29674-how-fear-of-change-inhibits-our-progress-toward-a-sustainable-future-with-laurie-mcginley2021-08-04 -

It's that thought that I believe fundamentally for humans, change can be very difficult because our bodies are hardwired to crave predictability. I know how that thing works. I know how that thing wears out. I know how to fix that thing. I know who to call to fix that thing... And so the thought that we would pick something that we haven't seen before, we haven't tested for 10 years personally, we don't know how the sand on the salt deteriorates it. We're not sure if the company we usually call the fix, it we'll be able to fix it. It's hard to choose unpredictable. https://www.solvecast.com/articles/detail/29674-how-fear-of-change-inhibits-our-progress-toward-a-sustainable-future-with-laurie-mcginley2021-08-04 -

We did months of stakeholder engagement, we brought huge materials where people can draw on them and do a design, charette type interaction with, and we were talking about how their neighborhood would change. So we were talking about majorly redesigning transportation nodes of two relatively busy streets and the type of building that would be built there and the type of. Community amenity that would exist there. So we were going into neighborhoods and talking to people about how their neighborhood would feel different based on our recommendations. https://www.solvecast.com/articles/detail/29674-how-fear-of-change-inhibits-our-progress-toward-a-sustainable-future-with-laurie-mcginley2021-08-04 -

The owner drives a lot of the decisions and sometimes it's a developer. It's not a long-term owner. And even given a firm that at its core mission is to do something about sustainability. Even that firm will be limited by what the owner is willing to pay for. https://www.solvecast.com/articles/detail/29674-how-fear-of-change-inhibits-our-progress-toward-a-sustainable-future-with-laurie-mcginley2021-08-04
