Case Study:
A recent case study illustrates our approach - we advised architects to transform an underutilized corridor into a restorative sanctuary for employees under stress. Leveraging scientific insights on restorative environments, we provided guidelines on spatial configurations, geometries, materials, color schemes and lighting.
By integrating carefully chosen design elements and the right level of sensory stimulation, the space fosters a healthier, more relaxed, and supportive work atmosphere. Investing in scientifically informed design is a strategic advantage for creating workplaces that prioritize well-being and enhance overall performance.
Deliverables:
The deliverable was a strategic report offering scientific insights on restorative environments, paired with tailored design guidelines and visual concepts. It includes an analysis of user needs informed by neuroscience and environmental psychology, followed by practical, evidence-based recommendations. The process involved initial assessments, targeted research, and the creation of clear, actionable guidelines designed to enhance well-being and optimize user experience.
