IIDA NY will host a Healthcare Forum at Teknion‘s New York City showroom, 641 Avenue of the Americas, 2nd Floor, NYC, on Tuesday, May 19, 5:30-8:00 pm.

Bill Rostenberg, principal, director of research, Anshen + Allen will discuss the perceived gap between Evidence-Based and Sustainable Design. Both trends have had a significant impact on recent healthcare Architecture, but they are generally executed separately and in instances are considered at odds with one another. Case studies and tools will be introduced that allow an analysis of strategies, indications of where the two topics conflict, and measured values of best practices to help provide structure through which design teams can effectively integrate them into the design process.
