An article “Good design increases well-being in compulsory care” was recently published on the website forskning.se. In the article Franz James is interviewed about his thesis study on the subject.
A brief excerpt from the article:
At SiS homes (Juvenile care homes), prisons, and in forensic psychiatry, creating environments that promote well-being for both patients and staff is crucial. It is entirely possible to develop designs that consider both safety and respect for the individual, according to a new thesis — which, among other things, suggests smart wardrobe solutions.
