WHISPERING HILLS DEMENTIA FACILITY

Whispering Hills Dementia Village: Text

PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS

RESEARCH

Upon beginning this project, extensive research and case studies were done on Alzheimer's disease and dementia as a whole. Research was done on colors, psychology, and ADA standards - specifically, but not limited to, wheelchair-users.

SOLO PROJECT

This project was completed without a partner, and therefore required lots of individual research and analyzation of project requirements and expectations.

PROJECT ANALYSIS

Those with Alzheimer's experience the world differently. Research brought to light how those that are confused and are of older age use color and design to navigate their worlds. Materials that are what they look like, colors that show depth perception, and easy-to-navigate space plans help, rather than confuse.
