before ‘social architecture’ was even a thing, Ender (at this point O’Callaghan) observed the growing prevalence of screens in our lives… quick observations revealed the passive behaviours of humans associated with ‘immersing’ themselves in these small flat worlds. as an extrovert also connected to the ever-inspiring natural world she quickly set about finding more imaginative ways to integrate screens into architecture and thus activating human bodies and minds.
