As architects and designers, we're trained to think about the way the spaces we design look. However, the majority of people have five senses. This month we begin a special 4-part series: Designing for the Other Four Senses.
In Part 1, we look at the impact of acoustics on senior living environments with expert Nick Treby, Associate Director of Spectrum Acoustic Consultants in the UK, who has projects located all over the world. You’ll discover new ideas for designing acoustically comfortable, functional spaces in this essential episode.
