As part of BREEAM and guidance from ‘The art of good health - Using visual arts in healthcare’ document, I have created a set of A3 presentation sheets with Artists that have worked with P+HS in the past and a range of new artist have been created for future reference. It’s a starting point and one that can help for future projects.
These presentation sheets have been created following input from the LINAC arts coordinator Mr. Chris Potter and James Gordon.
Artist in this project:
Shona Kitchen
Julia Barton
Kisa Kawakami

Artist:
Shelagh Wakely

Arists:
David Harben
Blow Zone
GA Aquatic

These are just some examples of what we proposed to our client at Nottingham City Campus for the new LINAC Facility.
For those in P+HS interested in seeing all the presentation sheets please access our intranet and check out Operations / Technical page.

While doing some research on BREEAM I came across a website that had an interesting article on “How to Grow Your Own Fresh Air” Here, it is a very interesting idea and one that its worth thinking about, even if it’s not applicable to any of our projects it is an interesting idea nonetheless.
Far more interesting is where this article came from. TED
What is TED?
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader. As part of an annual event the annual conference brings together the world’s most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes).
The information found in this site is by far some of the best that I have ever seen; aside from some very interesting Architecture talks there are some other great talks by inspiring people (in their own right) like Sir Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Stephen Hawkins, Sir Norman Foster and many more.
Below are some links to interesting talks:
Frank Gehry
Norman Foster: Building on the green agenda
Thom Mayne: Architecture is a new way to connect to the world
There are many more but I would leave up to you to find those of most interests to you.
I hope you find this site as interesting as I do.
