1115: Biophilic Design for Well-Being in the Workplace
Bill Browning, Terrapin Bright Green
Biophilic design can reduce stress, enhance creativity and clarity of thought, improve our well-being and expedite healing; as the world population continues to urbanize, these qualities are ever more important. We’re delighted and very excited that Bill has so kindly agreed to travel from the US and take part in our conference.

1200: A New Approach To Resolving Office Noise
Nigel Oseland, Workplace Unlimited
Noise is one of the main causes of dissatisfaction in the office and the biggest challenge for interior designers. Noise can lead to stress, poor wellbeing, reduced performance and absenteeism. It is a psychophysical problem but the psychological element is often ignored. The latest results from a new global survey will be revealed along with a new approach to resolving noise issues.
