I conducted a study of the use of the East side of the NEST at UBC on a sunny afternoon one day this week. I wanted to explore whether the new turf field was actually in use – to my delight it was well populated that day. I also looked at the areas around the NEST to study how the availability of green space and spatial programming influences the experience of the gathering space on the western side of the building.
