Hong Kong 2015 Awards

Lead Judge: Prof. James Barlow, Ph.D. Imperial College London (UK)

Winner of Best Student Research Project:

Marc Levinson, UK
Healthy Circulation,
“Focus on the efficiency of healthcare layouts, but unlike most previous work on in-patient wards, it looks at circulation spaces in primary care centres in England. The report presents a review of changing guidance and policy, and research literature on the links between design principles and user experience. A well-designed and well-executed project of a high standard for a student project.”
Research project winner

Winner of Best Non-Student Research Project;

Efthimia Pantzartzis, Federica Pascale and Andrew D. F. Price , UK
Design for People Living with Dementia
“Dementia is the growing concern for the public, policy maker and healthcare providers, and dementia-friendly living environments will need to be created at scale in the future. The research studied 115 pilot projects funded by the UK’s Department of Health to identify research gaps and cost-effective solutions. It also developed salutogenic indicators for dementia-friendly environments.”

Winner of Best Ph.D. Research Project;

Adeleh Nejati, PhD, MArch, EDAC, USA
Evaluation of Healthcare Facilities
“A multi-methodology study on how different features may impact on usage of break rooms and perceived levels of restoration. The study surveyed nearly 1000 nursing staff and also included focused interviews and narrative survey questions. The topic is critical because little research focuses on staff needs, despite the known relationship between staff well-being and quality of patient care. A methodologically sophisticated and well written study, producing important findings.”
