    Description

    We live in a world of limited resources, and the AEC industry not only has a large impact on the use of those resources, but also the overall health of our planet. As designers, it is important to consider the impact of the project not only on the environment, but also on the health of its occupants.
     
    In this course, we’ll discuss how to better identify and reduce a design’s carbon footprint using Building Information Modeling (BIM). Specifying high-quality, sustainable materials for interiors can not only lead to longer product life cycles and better energy management, but also benefit the overall health of the occupant by limiting the use of toxic substances and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). We’ll demonstrate how BIM gives the designer more control over a building’s level of sustainability – such as generating embodied carbon calculations – and gives the designer more opportunities to enhance the aesthetics and occupant comfort by using a systems approach.

    Description

    As human lifespans extend, the cost of living continues to rise, and lifestyles become increasingly diverse, there is increased pressure on maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle inside the home. This presents a compelling opportunity to proactively integrate universal design principles into everyday living, starting with the primary place of residence for people who are growing older

    Designers can employ adaptable accessibility features in the early stages of home development and construction to create barrier-free living environments that are capable of accommodating changing needs over time. In this intermediate Part 2 course, we will delve into case studies featuring individuals with wide-ranging needs and living situations. We will illustrate the significant benefits of adaptive design and planning techniques, building on the foundation of the baseline and universal design personas introduced in Part 1. Additional case studies will demonstrate how the appropriate integration of universal design principles in advance can help to ease lifestyle transitions, not only for people living in group settings, but also for those coping with sudden injuries and significant physical or mental changes. 

    Subject matter expertise provided by the ASID Universal Design Committee (formerly known as the Committee on Adaptive Living).


    What You Will Learn
    • Emphasize adaptive living as a fundamental aspect of residential design. 
    • Assess architectural plans to identify necessary design adjustments for adaptations. 
    • Cultivate skills and strategies for universal design. 
    • Perform task and activity analyses to determine adaptation requirements for design plans.

    Description

    For designers who take pride in bringing meaningful experiences to their clients and pull out all the stops to fulfill their vision, the pandemic created frequent issues with materials, supply chains, product availability, staffing, and other deliverables. These challenges permeate our professional lives but do not have to overwhelm us. To thrive in the midst of change and adapt to new modes within the industry, professionals must increase flexibility and their skills in resilience. Cultivating resilient behavior helps buffer against adversity so that we can continue to be our best selves in our personal and professional lives.


    What you will learn
    • Describe the characteristics of resilience as it relates to all aspects of life. 
    • Identify the role of tools such as breathing, mindfulness, journaling, and mindfulness-based movement (Pilates) as resources for building resilience. 
    • Implement resilience-based practices to integrate in daily interactions with clients, vendors, and colleagues, as well as for personal growth.
    • Review and consult public resources to help further cultivate resiliency skills. 


    Format
    • Each weekly module includes instructional videos about 15 minutes in length along with about 15 minutes of readings, podcasts, or videos to provide background information, and journaling or other activity. Have a notebook handy to use as a journal when prompted. You will progress through the content in sequential order.
    • At the completion of each week’s lesson, you will upload your completed activity as an assignment. You must complete each week’s assignment to receive continuing education credits (CEUs).
    • We recommend that you complete one module each week for a total of six weeks in chronological sequence.


    Modules

    • WEEK 1: Mindfulness to Reduce Stress 
      • We will describe characteristics of resilience, identify tools for cultivating resilience, implement resilience-based practices, and discover resources for further support. Your primary resilience tool is mindfulness.  
    • WEEK 2: How to Cope with Toxic Personalities | Resilience Skill: Forgiveness
      • At some point in your design career, you’ve probably had a client who rubs you the wrong way. Maybe they seem to enjoy being difficult, or they’re self-absorbed, rude, indecisive, or all of the above. The bottom line is that working with this client increases your stress. You don’t want to engage in the project, but you have to get it done. How can you approach this client and project with resilience? We’ll explore strategies to manage the situation to your benefit so you can succeed.
    • WEEK 3: Building Self-Confidence | Resilience Skill: Facing Fears 
      • In this week’s session we focus on building self-confidence and the benefit of facing your fears to achieve personal growth. We’ll discuss the value of committing to self-discovery to develop your authentic professional self, and how to reframe weaknesses as opportunities.
    • WEEK 4: How to Navigate Unpredictable Events | Resilience Skill: Regulating Emotion 
      • We must all deal with the unpredictability of “upstream” factors outside of our control, such as supply chain delays, weather events, or sudden staff shortages. Becoming pre-occupied with the constant fear of failure creates anxiety. Build your flexibility and adaptability for when plans go awry so you don’t become frozen in place.  
    • WEEK 5: Creating Self-Care Practice | Resilience Skill: Establishing Routine and Preparation 
      • When our workload increases, we tend to sacrifice downtime. Pressing deadlines increase stress and heighten our stress response, creating an energy vacuum. Disruptions are unavoidable but the faster you can reestablish equilibrium, the easier it is to regain emotional control. Routine self-care buffers against the sense of losing control. 
    • WEEK 6: Utilizing Social Support | Resilience Skill: Building Social Connections to Reduce Isolation 
      • When we feel overwhelmed, retreating can provide some respite, but feeling isolated can increase anxiety. Finding connection with peers produces feelings of acceptance, helping you to reduce the burden of “going it alone” by providing an outlet for expression and strengthening our resolve. Learn how to overcome a common barrier to making new social connections: not enough time.  


    Access period: One year from registration date.
