EVENT THEME
Detailing Interiors
In some ways, architectural projects succeed or fail based upon how well material and system junctions are negotiated. This is just as true for interior projects as it is for entire buildings. How does the wall meet the floor? How does one ceiling system transition to another? How are mechanical registers handled? When these small junctures are deftly detailed the effects ripple out across the entire project, so it pays to know how manufacturers’ systems work so you can successfully bring them together. In this accredited workshop, experts will lead tutorials on a variety of interior detailing conditions.

This course introduces interior designers and architects to the innovative fields of Neuroaesthetics, Neuroarchitecture, and Biomimicry, focusing on integrating Preserved Gardens and Biophilic Design principles. Participants will learn to create environments that enhance human well-being and environmental sustainability, exploring design elements’ psychological and regenerative impact.
The curriculum is structured to progress from fundamental concepts to more intricate applications, making it ideal for professionals aiming to incorporate cutting-edge science & Evidence Based Design into their design practices.
Learning Objectives
- Explain the basic principles of neuroaesthetics and neuroarchitecture and how these disciplines intersect with interior design and architecture, using insights from key studies and research.
- Apply the concepts of biophilic design and sensory experience to enhance indoor environments and boost mental health and productivity via biomimicry.
- Design spaces that integrate preserved natural elements, such as moss walls and preserved gardens, and form a dynamic fusion between aesthetic values and psychological well-being.
- Critically evaluate and adapt existing architectural and interior designs to better comply with Neuroaesthetics principles, improving both the functionality and the human experience within designed spaces.

Over 600 million people live in multi-family housing globally, accounting for 43.9 million U.S. households. The American Apartment Owners Association (AAOA) reports noise as the fourth most common complaint in multi-family housing. Our course, Stop the Stomp: Techniques for Building the Quiet Apartment Building, examines the causes of noise problems, offers acoustical performance requirements, and recommends practical building techniques to reduce noise in multi-family settings.
Learning Objectives
- Identify the characteristics of sound and the negative impacts noise has on occupants.
- Explore the viability of sound mitigation techniques and which ASTM standards govern acoustical design.
- Understand the difference between room acoustics and building acoustics and which acoustical performance recommendations are appropriate for different types of spaces based on ASTM standards.
- Identify the appropriate mitigation solutions to implement the best acoustical design for multifamily projects.
