Lost in space

architecture and dementia

Feddersen, E., & Lüdtke, I. (2014). Lost in space: architecture and dementia. Basel: Birkhauser Verlag.

More than 35 million people worldwide currently live with dementia, and the number will double by 2050 according to professional forecasts. This development presents a unique challenge to architecture and urban planning, because dementia is associated with problems in orientation and, hence, is closely related to spatial contexts. This book is a useful guide to all disciplines involved in design and planning: architects, interior designers, engineers, builders, town planners, local authorities, industries-but also to friends and family members.
