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.
Agenda
10AM - 11AM
Credit type: 1 AIA HSW LU
Provider: Garden on the Wall
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.

Architectural resin panels are engineered to suit the demands of a wide array of interior and exterior applications and offer almost unlimited combinations of color, pattern, and design. This course presents the features and options that allow resin panels to meet design requirements for both function and beauty and discusses how resin panels may play a role in projects seeking LEED® v4.1 BD+C, ID+C, and O+M; Living Building ChallengeSM v4.1; or WELL Building Standard® v2 certification.
Learning Objectives
- Compare the types of resin used to make panels in terms of their material properties, and discuss the renewable elements and recyclability of panels.
- Discuss resin panel décor and customization possibilities and the installation options for a wide array of interior and exterior applications.
- Explain how resin panels have the potential to play a role in projects seeking to meet the requirements of green building programs such as LEED®, the Living Building ChallengeSM, and the WELL Building Standard® in the areas of recycled content, beauty and design, and biophilia.
- Describe how the light transmission properties of resin panels can be used to delineate areas and add privacy while increasing occupant access to daylighting and its many benefits.
