Inclusive Design: Designing for Dementia and Ageing
Inclusive design is crucial for addressing the needs of individuals with Dementia, a degenerative disease that impacts their lifestyles and causes both physical and mental limitations. This CPD will give you the tools to design by understanding the context, atmosphere, and sensorial elements that affect their wellbeing, enhancing their quality of life. Applying design principles to create Dementia-friendly environments can significantly improve safety, orientation, memory, comfort and behaviour, ultimately resulting in livable and suitable spaces for those affected by Dementia.
