Research
Our Spaces for Wellbeing methodology consists of 3 phases, starting with preliminary research conducted by Renske Bongers, MSc. A deep dive into the context to learn more about the hospital department and its users.
What is the interaction between the physical environment and behaviour? What state of mind do we need to change or improve?
We used several methods to achieve this:
Focus group - to learn about the department and everything that happens there.
Observations - to track behaviour and use of the space
Interviews - to understand the underlying emotions and behaviours of patients and staff.

Design
Based on this concept and these theories, A+N Studio designed the light installations Tidal Light and Glowing Colours. Together with a context designed by Justine Kontou with a matching wall finish, a supporting poem and scent, they form a ‘Space for Well Being’ in three different places in the oncology department.
