Abstract

After describing the theory of environmental design with the temporal factors associated with the left cerebral hemisphere and the spatial factors associated with the right hemisphere, we shall discuss indications for escape from dangerous circumstances and annoyances in built environments. When we attain the third stage of life based on our individual personality, we will have also attained an additional advantage for escaping ill social groups.
