2019 Healthcare Design Expo and Conference

W02 - Is Functional Programming a Thing of the Past, Or the Only Real Way to Design for the Future? (Room 208-209)

02 Nov 19
8:00 AM - 12:30 PM

The pre-design programming phase of the design process ensures that subsequent phases efficiently build on the intent of the project and guard against a flawed design. However, recent practices indicate this step is often minimized because of cost, time, or other rationalizations. Join this in-depth workshop for a lively discussion moderated by experienced facilitators to explore how to link strategy to design through solid functional programming throughout the design process. Learn about related pre-design best practices, tools, and tactics and share notes from the field with your peers. A write up of the workshop will be organized and sent to participants after the session. Hosted by Nursing Institute for Healthcare Design
