The Effect of Garden Designs on Mood and Heart Output in Older Adults Residing in an Assisted Living Facility

Author(s): Goto, S., Park, B.-J., Tsunetsugu, Y., Herrup, K., Miyazaki, Y.
This research focuses on the impact that different garden designs have on people's mood and heart rate in a retirement community setting. The researchers had previously piloted a study focusing on elderly participants' aesthetic preferences for garden designs; they wanted to move beyond this to better understand where these preferences come from, and whether they are actually somehow hardwired in the brain from more innate psychological and biological responses, rather than cultural or learned.

Process Simulation during the Design Process Makes the Difference: Process Simulations Applied to a Traditional Design

Author(s): Traversari, R., Goedhart, R., Schraagen, J. M.
Minimal evidence exists regarding the design implications of using process simulation to assist in the process of designing new operating room (OR) layouts. While the traditional design process for OR layout does incorporate the experiences and insights of users, functionality testing of the OR environment is usually conducted post occupancy.
