Spatial strategy
|
Developing a healing environment is not only about how the place looks, but also about how it develops. Healing is a process, and so a healing environment is about making space and time for inclusion, learning and adaptation. This approach is illustrated with specific proposals, structured in four time frames - what can be done in a few weeks, months, years and decades.
The research was commissioned by GGzE and was developed in a two-year design research project at TU Eindhoven. It builds on the existing masterplan of De Grote Beek, by defining an overarching story and approach for the healing environment and connecting it to existing and new initiatives and interventions. |
The complete strategy is published in the Playbook for healing environments.
