THE NEGATIVE ARCHIVE
A Memory Palace
An exploration of the effects of dementia on memory, cognitive ability and recognition of the world around us. Using this research to inform a design solution for tackling isolation, anxiety and personal neglect within people suffering from dementia.
Upon writing my thesis dissertation on the same subject matter, the research could be utilised to inspire various design ideas, taking into consideration the reactiveness of those with dementia to that of their environment.
Ensuring that there are sufficient communal spaces around the landscape as well as inside the design to promote social activity and aid in the battle of loneliness. These spaces are catered to the various needs of the users and therefore have a multitude of functions.
