We would like to draw your attention to this activity co-hosted by the Future Cities Lab Global Module Architectural Cognition in Practice, ACP, and the Chair for Cognitive Science, ETH Zürich.

What? "Linking Cognition and Architecture: Co-Designing with Evidence for Human-Centred                        Healthcare Environments" 

When? March 9th, 2023 

Where?  Swiss Center for Design and Health in Nidau 

The event is free of charge. Registration is mandatory.

This event will showcase the teaching and research at ETH Zurich in the area of evidence-based design for human-centred healthcare environments. During the event, you will have the unique opportunity to experience the impact of architecture on healthcare through 1:1 scale projections of hospital floor plans analysed for various human-centred metrics and showcasing real-world behaviour patterns of caregivers in healthcare environments. The projections will include visualisations of caregivers walking patterns, their interactions with one another and visual analytics of the space concerning patients' outdoor view and intervisibility between spaces to name a few. The projections will serve as the backdrop for role-playing scenarios where attendees can 'walk' within the projected spaces and compare their intuition with the visual analytics generated through on site observations in real world healthcare environments.

The evening will begin at 5 pm and will include:

5:00 PM | Welcome and Introduction

5:20 PM | Student Presentations

5:50 PM | Research presentation

6:10 PM | Coffee break

6:30 PM | Role playing simulations
