Designing for Outcomes- Can Design "really" improve health & wellness? Let's look at the proof
Speaker: Dr. Upali Nanda, Director of Research HKS, Associate Professor of Practice, Taubman College
A compelling body of evidence suggests that the built environment has a measurable impact on human health and wellness. As we see an increasing spotlight on health & wellness initiatives in our industry, it is difficult to tell fact from fluff and trend from substance. In this presentation we will look at the evidence-base and take a scientific approach to design innovation.
