Spatial Clues for Orientation: Architectural Design Meets People with Dementia
The physical environment holds great potential to improve the well-being of people with dementia (Calkins et al., 2001; Van Audenhove et al., 2003; ternberg, 2009; Van Audenhove et al., 2009). However, when designing environments for them, architects are faced with a lack of adequate design knowledge. On the hypothesis that the perspectives of people with dementia have the potential to expand architects’ design expertise (Zeisel, 2001), our research ims to gain a better understanding of their spatial experiences in order to achieve this end. This paper outlines how this overall objective has become more articulated into more specific research questions through preliminary research:
