Disease, injury, or congenital disorders can significantly impact an individual's ability to perform daily activities effectively, often relying on the designed environment for support. This specialized field of person-centered health care design focuses on addressing the unique design needs of individuals with health conditions, requiring a foundational understanding of infection control, bio-physiology, neuroscience, and basic biomechanics. Whether the designer engages in person- or condition-centered design, this book explores the causes and consequences of health conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, chronic lung disease, muscular dystrophy, and neurological disorders, on a person's quality of life. It examines over forty diverse health conditions in relation to various building typologies, including schools, group homes, rehabilitation and habilitation centers, and more, to identify design solutions that optimize environments for the specific needs of individuals.
Author Dak Kopec encourages readers to critically analyze and approach health conditions with deductive reasoning, providing a comprehensive framework for promoting health, safety, and welfare. This book serves as a valuable resource for students and practitioners, equipping them with the knowledge and tools necessary to enhance the physiological, psychological, and sociological well-being of individuals.
