Taylor & Francis Ltd Nature through a Hospital Window
Book SynopsisAdopting an evidence-based approach, this book uses two state-of-the-art experimental studies to explore natureâs therapeutic benefits in healthcare environments, emphasizing how windows and transparent spaces can strengthen peopleânature interactions. High-quality, supportive, and patient-centred healthcare environments are a key priority for healthcare designers worldwide, with ageing populations creating a demand for remodeled and updated facilities. The first study demonstrates individual psychophysiological responses, moods, and preferences in simulated hospital waiting areas with different levels of visual access to nature through windows, while the second experiment uses cutting-edge immersive virtual reality techniques to explore how gardens and nature views impact peopleâs spatial cognition, wayfinding behaviors, and experience when navigating hospitals. Through these studies and discussions drawing on architectural theory, the book highlights the important benefits of having access to nature from hospital interiors. This concise volume will appeal to academics and designers interested in therapeutic landscapes and healthcare architecture.Table of ContentsCONTENTSList of figuresList of tablesAcknowledgementsCHAPTER 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Big Little Hotel
Book SynopsisThis book showcases small hotels, all located in the United States, designed by architects who use light and materials in interesting and intentional ways. The designs also deliberately connect to their local history, context, or land â in many cases all three. Both the architecture and the operations harmonize with the place, whether that is a bustling city, small town, or natural area. Many are new buildings but some are adaptive reuse projects or renovations of historic properties, extending the connectivity of the place into the future.A condensed history of lodging helps to place the many typologies and histories of hospitality in relationship to world events and includes the many factors that influence hotel development such as business practices, technology, and even politics. Hotels are influenced by larger trends and innovations in hospitality such as the emergence of a variety of creative possibilities for future travel. A final chapter includes speculation on traveTable of ContentsLIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS 001 PREFACE 01. INTRODUCTION TIMELINE 02. HOTEL HISTORIES 1. Hotel Magdalena, Lake|Flato Architects 2.
