Room Design Article Features the Work of Architecture for Radiology
Architecture for
Radiology (the only architecture firm in the world focused exclusively on
radiology design and construction) is pleased to announce that its
radiology design work has been featured in a new article on the subject of
reading room design.
The article is entitled “Illuminating Reading Room Design for Better
Reading Strategies”. It was written by Justine Cadet, and published in the
December 2008 issue of Health Imaging & IT Magazine.
The article
addresses a number of key design parameters for reading room design, and
would be a good introduction to the subject for radiologists, radiology
administrators and/or radiology consultants involved in radiology room
design, including the planning and design of reading rooms.
Amongst the topics
covered in the article are: workflow within the reading environment,
lighting; acoustics; HVAC; privacy vs. collaboration, ergonomics;
standardization vs. customization, and design materials and colors.
Architecture for
Radiology’s well-known radiology room design principal - William N.
Bernstein, AIA – is quoted extensively in the article.
