Watch Blum's online CPD session on designing for the changing needs of an ageing population in their webinar, hosted by NLA.
We are all familiar with the megatrends of Ageing Populations, Accessibility & Mobility. But what do they actually mean to you and why are they so important in built environment designs?
We are all familiar with the megatrends of Ageing Populations, Accessibility & Mobility. But what do they actually mean to you and why are they so important in built environment designs?
Blum believes that iconic furniture should look good, be practical and long-lasting. But also, be designed for real lives and everyday living.
They consider all the theories mentioned above, but also deliver practical solutions around: What happens as we age? How can we support ageing in place for longer? How can we achieve good inclusive design for everyone? And question “can we put ourselves and our teams into the shoes of the end-user and design with empathy?”
Watch Blum and a panel of experts as they explore these issues in more detail. Let’s change the world with moving ideas.
