Corgan prides itself on research-driven design that provides real world impact. Connie Lin, one of our researchers based in Los Angeles, will co-present a Health Environments Research & Design Journal (HERD) article on sensory waterscapes for The Center for Health Design. She will discuss how utilization of sensory waterscapes can provide a cost affordable, non-pharmacological, alternative for anxiety mitigation for patients and staff undergoing high-stress situations. Please join or reach out to Connie or learn more about how research can be applied to your project.

Biophilic research suggests that the presence of water can reduce stress, reduce blood pressure and increase circulation. Despite their effectiveness in reducing stress, water features have many risks and issues – primarily associated with infection control, cost and maintenance – that make them incompatible with healthcare environments. Attend our EBD Journal Club on December 17 to hear Connie Lin of Corgan, Mardelle Shepley of Cornell Institute for Healthy Futures and Kati Peditto, PhD of DLR Group present their Health Environments Research & Design Journal (HERD) article on sensory waterscapes. They will explain the background, methods and results that concluded the utilization of sensory waterscapes can also provide a cost affordable, non-pharmacological, alternative for anxiety mitigation for patients and staff undergoing high-stress situations.
