But they have the potential to do even more. By adopting principles of urban design, museums can transform into essential \"third places\"—vibrant social spaces where communities gather, friendships are formed, and societies grow stronger.\n\"The third place is essential to being healthy and happy because you need to have a place where you can just relax, be yourself, have fun, connect with friends, and meet new people,\" explains urbanist and psychologist Dr. Tayana Panova.\nHow we experience a space depends entirely on its design, she says. An engaging environment filled with life makes time fly, whether you are walking down a vibrant city street or exploring a beautiful museum gallery.\nToday on Call 'Em Like Museum, Dr. Panova—co-host of The Perfect City podcast and a popular creator exploring how urban design affects our brains—discusses what museums can learn from the design of cities, and vice versa. We also explore the vital, real-world stimulation we get from third places that our screens simply cannot replicate, the right way to integrate technology into an exhibit, and what modern cultural institutions might want to borrow from American shopping malls.\n\nFull transcript of this episode\nSubscribe to the newsletter\nThis episode was hosted, produced, and edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod\nChapters\nMusic: www.purple-planet.com\n\nFollow Tayana on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube @dr.tpanova\nThe KunstHausWien in Vienna","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/R3vVVmzGNQz0jMgSg7uznIO-cko06gdiz9lG9pi3elA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85MTA0/ZmM2NTdlOTJjZGZk/NDA0MGI2M2IxNmU1/NWE0MC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
