In a recent issue of Delve Magazine, Senior Interior Designer, Senior Associate Scott Ross Steffes, IIDA, NCIDQ, LEED GA, makes the case for a new standard in healthcare design: natural light, healthy materials, supportive environments, and other wellness essentials built into every space from the start, not added on later.
