This webinar will explore decorative and functional products and coverings that help protect a space from the many expected, and sometimes unexpected, ways occupants and visitors inflict damage on the interior of a building. Building entrances are constantly beset by everything from simple foot falls to delivery dollies and hand trucks, as well as the regular intrusion of natural elements like water, dirt and other foreign objects tracked in from the outside world. Walls and corners likewise face a near constant assault, especially in health care settings or schools, where equipment and devices are wheeled from one location to another. Without proper protection, doors and wall surfaces will require excessive maintenance, painting, and ultimately early replacement, creating a space that does not perform to the durable, or aesthetic expectations of the owner, or architect. This webinar will provide best practice examples of how to gird a building from the abuse of the general masses through careful specification of products and materials, while keeping the design aesthetic a priority.

Victoria Numbers of Four Point Design will present Neurodiagnostic Institute & Advanced Treatment Center (NDI) project. The NeuroDiagnostic Institute is the flagship facility for Indiana’s network of state operated mental health facilities. The facility focuses on diagnosis and treatment of brain-based disorders. The primary challenge for the design team was creating a healing environment which would be safe and durable for an intense patient population. Thorough research and input from the client provided the criteria to develop the patient areas into comforting, therapeutic environments. Careful attention to finish selections and material detailing ensure patient and staff safety, while nature-inspired artwork reflects the overall design concept, imparting positive distractions for patients. The outcome of the project included improved patient outcomes and increased safety for patients and staff are the result from this project. Adults, children and adolescents now have a safe place to receive treatment and care with access to a school, fitness spaces, basic cooking skills, and recreation amenities in one state-of the-art-facility.

Stephanie Fallon, M.S., IIDA, CHID , Director of Interiors at PhiloWilke will present one of their healthcare projects.

Construction Specialties’ Red Ramsey, is a Product Specialist for Construction Specialties will provide tips on specifying solutions that incorporate design and function.
