Dr. Anjali Joseph, Director of the Center for Health Facilities Design and Testing (CHFDT), presented “Architecture and the Choreography of Healthcare” for the Columbia Museum of Art’s ArtBreak series. The virtual presentation, delivered on August 25th, provided examples of healthcare environments from observational studies to illustrate the dynamic interactions between the built environment, care providers and those receiving care, tasks performed, and the tools and equipment used. Dr. Joseph’s presentation demonstrated the importance of understanding these complex interactions when designing human-centered healthcare environments.
