The Metaverse world is not as daunting as it may seem and doesn't have to be an eccentric utopia. Rather, it can be an architectural realm where we put our designs and use them in diverse ways.

Harnessing these tools enables us to gauge human behavior and design a more collaborative environment, ultimately driving positive changes and improving outcomes. In this episode, Erin McDannald shares more about Metaverse, smart buildings, and how you can learn more about human behavior in our built environment.
Erin McDannald is the CEO and owner of Lighting Environments and its sister company, Environments. She has guided clients through the lighting design and construction process for over two decades.
