    WAFVirtual 2020 - Hospitals: An Evolving Typology

    WAFVirtual 2020 - Hospitals: An Evolving Typology

    Hospitals: An Evolving Typology
    With the COVID 19 pandemic raging around the world, health design is at the forefront of many people's minds, whether or not they are in the health field. While we've seen paradigm shifts and pivots in healthcare in the past, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is so significant - we believe we will see a true global transformation of health design as a result. Hospitals will evolve their operations due to the pandemic and other changing global conditions and so, a typological evolution must continue to occur in hospital design. Jean Mah and Ralph Johnson will discuss the historical evolution of the modern hospital, the current state of the art of hospital design with case studies from their current work, and how the hospital typology might continue to evolve in the future. 
    Ralph Johnson, Global Design Director, Perkins + Will

    WAFVirtual 2020 - Post Covid Shopping

    Post Covid Shopping: Retail Reloaded
    Laurie Chetwood will be looking at how the current challenges facing the High Street are an opportunity for designers to participate in repurposing redundant town and city centres. He will discuss how not only high street buildings, but also urban infrastructure systems are being repurposed. Logistics is no longer just a big box on the side of the motorway keeping the rain off stored goods but is evolving into urban logistics: an integral part of a repurposed urban supply chain, and the driving force behind the new social and community-focused experiential retail.
    Laurie Chetwood, Chairman, Chetwoods Architects
