Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) will drastically increase over the next few decades. As caregivers wait for a cure, they may seek new ways to improve the quality of life for those living with dementia. This scholarly personal narrative and simulation-based inquiry addresses the central research question: How can the synthesis of professional practice, theoretical constructs, intentionally designed spaces, and technology inform a cohesive set of best design practices aimed at substantially enhancing the quality of life for individuals living with dementia?The dissertation explores emergent ideas in environmental and ergonomic design, going beyond traditional architectural paradigms and care practices. It scrutinizes nuanced design elements, such as color contrast, spatial arrangements, tactile textures, and aesthetic styles, while also emphasizing the human-centric aspects of design such as care protocols, tactile interactions, and emotional reinforcement. Furthermore, the study investigates how technology can be effectively integrated with intentionally designed environments to offer improved, person-centered care. This integrated approach aims to generate actionable insights for creating adaptive and responsive environmental conditions for individuals with dementia. Also, it aims to transform complex ideas into practical tools that can be utilized in a variety of settings-including homes, residential facilities, medical centers, and public spaces-to better accommodate those living with dementia.

520 $a La enfermedad de Alzheimer y las demencias relacionadas (ADRD) aumentaran drasticamente en las proximas decadas. Mientras los cuidadores esperan una cura, pueden buscar nuevas formas de mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas que viven con demencia. Esta narrativa personal academica y la investigacion basada en simulaciones abordan la pregunta de investigacion central: ¿Como puede la sintesis de la practica profesional, los constructos teoricos, los espacios disenados intencionalmente y la tecnologia informar un conjunto cohesivo de las mejores practicas de diseno dirigidas a mejorar sustancialmente la calidad de vida de los individuos que viven con demencia?La disertacion explora ideas emergentes en diseno ambiental y ergonomico, yendo mas alla de los paradigmas arquitectonicos tradicionales y las practicas de cuidado. Examina con detenimiento elementos de diseno matizados, como el contraste de colores, los arreglos espaciales, las texturas tactiles y los estilos esteticos, al tiempo que enfatiza los aspectos centrados en el humano del diseno, tales como los protocolos de cuidado, las interacciones tactiles y el refuerzo emocional. Ademas, el estudio investiga como la tecnologia puede integrarse de manera efectiva con entornos disenados intencionalmente para ofrecer un cuidado centrado en la persona mejorado. Este enfoque integrado tiene como objetivo generar percepciones accionables para crear condiciones ambientales adaptativas y receptivas para individuos con demencia. Tambien tiene como meta transformar ideas complejas en herramientas practicas que puedan utilizarse en una variedad de entornos, incluyendo hogares, instalaciones residenciales, centros medicos y espacios publicos, para mejorar la acomodacion de aquellos que viven con demencia.
