Livable bathrooms for older people: designing out dependence in activities of daily living. This project aims to establish the design fundamentals needed for the development of more flexible, innovative and safer bathroom fixtures and domestic bathroom environments for older Australians. It provides an understanding of bathroom features and characteristics that function well for older persons and those that diminish their wellbeing.
The sound of space: architecture for improved auditory performance in the age of digital manufacturing. This project will combine complex custom architectural surface design with acoustic modelling and simulation to look for novel solutions to the challenges of noisy interiors. It will apply digital modelling in new ways including the construction of high fidelity full scale prototypes for testing in an open office environment and a church.
