“…When a building frame is not completed it creates new design trajectories that challenge traditional authorship. Architects can learn many lessons on design for scarcity -rather than luxury -for positive wellbeing (Goodbun et al 2012(Goodbun et al , 2014. New generations of architects trained in modes of flexible and open practice can be more capable and effective contributors to their urban environment and can be more sustainable in their own practice.…”

“…There is a need for conceptual and practical mechanisms to improve health and well-being, but which do not reinforce existing structural power imbalances (Shiva 2016). Despite challenges experienced by such vulnerable communities in low-resource settings, the conditions of resource scarcity can drive creativity (Goodbun, Till, & Iossifova 2012). Grassroots participatory practices led by vulnerable groups can offer equitable solutions for planetary health.…”

The planetary health concept describes the relations between health and climate. The inequities that connect these two domains are experienced most by low-resource and vulnerable populations, e.g. the impact of drought on subsistence livelihoods and associated mental health issues. Climate justice and health justice are framed through capabilities and integrated with ecofeminist approaches. Spatial justice is introduced as the ability to conceptualise how these interconnected injustices are mediated through environments. The integration of these theories can provide a justice-based planetary health approach that could overcome several barriers. Design and spatial practice offer processes and tools to understand the complexity of planetary health across scales, systems and relations; and to generate design solutions that promote equity and justice. Practical examples of Global South design projects are presented that connect health and climate. The example of a maternal health project in rural Kenya shows how a conceptual design framework for a justice-based planetary health can contribute to the planetary health. Practice relevance Global challenges of inequity are increasingly understood as complex and interconnected. The planetary health movement conceptualises a holistic view of the world incorporating an ecofeminist perspective. Addressing these challenges requires the ability to conceptualise interconnected injustices in climate and health and practical approaches, where participatory design processes can be useful. A conceptual framework can be used to design integrated solutions to planetary health injustices, relevant for built environment and development practitioners. The processes, tools and components of practice from the Global South are explored, which can be used to promote equity within the built environment.

“…This speculation can create a "circular" dialectic for a dynamic building market. In this regard, Jeremy Till -architectural practitioner and scholarshows that the market is indeed not interested in creating flexible housing and is much more interested in demolishing and building to maintain a high activity rate (Till, Schneider, 2005;Goodbun et al 2014). This activity embodies the "planned obsolescence" (or "creative destruction") of market dynamics where the desire for consumption goes beyond actual material needs (McGowan 2016;Jonsson, Wennerlind 2023).…”
