Please register for the event on the AIANY website, https://calendar.aiany.org/2018/11/29/proof-the-power-of-social-research-in-design/.

DESCRIPTION:
Architecture’s impact on the social and psychological well-being of humans has been recognized, however full integration of insights from the social sciences into every architectural practice remains incomplete.

This panel will showcase exemplary projects which demonstrate the power of embedding social science research in design. The tools, technologies and teams behind these exceptional projects will enable a conversation of how social science can shape constant improvement in our built environment. We will explore how quantitative and qualitative tools are being deployed to integrate the role of the social sciences into the practice of architecture.

This conversation builds upon our committee’s ongoing exploration of the value of integrating social science research by showcasing evidence of how social science research informs higher performing environments.

Experts in designing, managing, and measuring the performance of workplace, learning, hospitality and retail spaces will present tangible examples of how research-driven design has proven performative outcomes for end users, occupant organizations, and their top and bottom lines. Panelists will discuss their approach to informing design and their process for measuring the performance of design based on human, social, and business outcomes.
