Michael Graves: A Case for Humanistic Solutions in Healthcare Design

Michael Graves will speak about the foundation of his design philosophy and how a personal healthcare tragedy focused his attention on improving healthcare experiences by design. He will present recent projects that range from military housing for returning wounded warriors to a revolutionary transport chair for the acute care hospital to performance textiles for all healthcare environments. Michael Graves puts patients first with common sense design solutions for some of healthcare’s greatest challenges. Reception immediately following the lecture.
