Collaborative Design Integration for a New Era of Health

The healthcare industry is always looking to the future (while tethered to the past). Imaginative possibilities, tech-enabled solutions and groundbreaking research proliferate in the age of AI. In a post-pandemic society, future-forward design thinking is increasingly grounded in the present moment; sustainability in health transcends geographic and cultural boundaries as a shared priority for sustaining human health and life on Earth. With all the potential for positive impact, how can designers adopt a mindset shift today that enables a shared vision for the future? A paradigm-shift from a siloed perspective on value, this presentation will explore the synergistic benefits of collaborative, integrated design thinking and its multifaceted advantages for achieving sustainable outcomes – from holistic wellbeing to high-performance operation. During this talk, you’ll:

• Explore the advantages of a building envelope design that considers patient comfort and high-performance operations of mechanical systems
• Understand how mass timber can reduce structural and foundation costs, construction time and enhance interior finishes
• Reimagine waste as an energy source and the possibilities to transform system operations to be more financially and environmentally sustainable
• Review examples of healthcare facilities with successful sustainable design outcomes and the inherent value that a whole-systems, integrated approach brings to healthcare design.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
