Design & Technology Suite
Published in
The design and technology demonstration area at the Belfast office is being replaced by an online open access design and technology suite which will be coming soon.
The DSDC is at the forefront of good design for dementia. The Stirling centre has a substantial suite which was opened in March 2008, confirming our role as a leading UK centre for dementia design. The suite features technology and equipment which can provide assistance in the day-to-day lives of people with dementia. It is located in the purpose-built, dementia-friendly Iris Murdoch Building which demonstrates both building and garden design.
Visits to the Stirling centre can be arranged through the Northern Ireland office for our clients.
Tours of the Iris Murdoch BuildingVisit the Design and Technology Suite to gain inspiration for design projects which support people with dementia. These tours will give you a taster of what are considered to be the main principles of dementia-friendly design and show some examples of how these can be adopted in various settings.

The tour will be conducted with the use of an audio handset and is free of charge to carers, volunteers and students and costs £10 per person for others.
