PROBLEM STATEMENT

The design of a New York City Therapeutic Hotel for United States War Veterans Many United States War Veterans suffer physical and psychological trauma, because they have either experience themselves or been exposed to the travesties and casualties of war. Many of them will develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Society portrays military personnel as brave and strong. For this reason, War Veterans think seeking help is a sign of weakness. Thus, they very seldom seek help on their own. This project seeks to create a therapeutic environment, which will allow the Military War Veterans to learn what PTSD is, how it effect them, and how receiving treatment can improve their quality of life. This therapeutic hotel will use a hospitality model that will allow the individuals who utilize this facility to receive healing services through an interactive design environment.

CLIENT PROFILE

Men and women who are United States War Veterans usually 18 – 50 years old, who are sometimes married and have children. These particular War Veterans have served in an active war and either experiences a physical or psychological trauma. Since these War Veterans suffered trauma while on active military service, during an active war, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs will pay the entire amount of this therapeutic service.

INTRODUCTORY ESSAY

The New Way to Heal – Art Therapy Definition of Art Therapy The BBC’s broadcast of the Culture Show, which featured a special film called “Art for Heroes” was first shown in 2011 on the United Kingdom Holiday, Armistice Day. It was about art therapy for veterans who were suffering from, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The art therapists were using art and creative work to help the veterans heal. They encouraged the veterans to use sculpturing, drawing, and viewing abstract paintings to help them express their feelings and emotions which may have been repressed. This process of making art to improve a patients’ mental, and emotional well-being is called Art Therapy. For thousands of years art has been used to communicate and express one’s thoughts and feelings. Art therapy had been used by the War Artist, Adrian Hill, who used it to help wounded soldiers returning back home after fighting in World War I. The therapeutic function of art has been utilized for centuries in various different ways to help people who experience illness, trauma or challenges in their lives. As a recognize treatment in the field of psychotherapy, art therapy provides patients a platform to experience and then improve self-expression through creating art, reacting on the art process, increasing self-awareness and self-esteem, and managing behavior. Thus, Art Therapy increases an individual’s personal development which increasing their quality of life. A Brief History of Art Therapy Art Therapy was based on the knowledge of personality, human development, psychology, family systems, and art education. Art Therapists generally are trained both in art and therapy. In the 19th Century, the first recognized Art Therapist in the United States was, Margaret Naumberg. She is considered the founder of Art Therapy. Her Primary identity was that of an educator who was next a psychotherapist and then an Art Therapist. In 1915, Margaret Naumberg, founded the Walden School in New York City. She believed that students had more motivation to learn and more creative expression if they studied subjects they were interest in. She believed art is as important as education in the development of a child. 20


INTRODUCTORY ESSAY

In the last decade, most Art Therapists can be found working in healthcare facilities such as cancer centers, day treatment programs, and sanatoriums. In the early 70’s, Art Therapy was mostly conducted in hospitals, so medical model’s such as diagnosis, disease, and treatment had a strong influence on the process of Art Therapy (Malchiodi 1999a, 1999b). Our understanding of the interplay between biochemistry, mental status, and creativity continues to evolve and a new medical specialty, arts medicine, has recently emerged (Malchiodi, 1998). Art therapy became more valuable after 9/11. A lot of victims, family members of victims, and first responders of the World Trade Center Terrorist Attack needed help covering mentally. This field has grown tremendously, and now the American Art Therapy Association (AATA), a National Organization of Art Therapists, founded in 1969, requires that Art Therapists have an MS in art therapy or a related field. The term “Art Therapies” can include art, music and creative writing treatments. Art therapy helps with the communication and expression of thoughts and emotions. Future of Art Therapy in Interior Design There is a large segment of the population that is dealing with issues of mental health. Thus, there may be a real need to incorporate Art Therapy into Interior Design. Interior Designers could utilize Interactive Art as an important part of their overall design. Interactive Art could allow the person who the interior design is meant for or visitors to get involve in the space, or ask the observer to become part of the artwork.

INTRODUCTORY ESSAY

The background of the participation art forms can trace from late 60s. The artworks like Umberto Ecos Opera Aperta (Umberto Eco, Das offene Kunstwerk (The Open Work, Opera apena), Frankfurt/M. [2]. 21973) is the example that made spectator to be part of play. Later in the middle of the 80s, German aesthetics Wolfgang Kemp demonstrates the method of reception aesthetics, seems to anticipate the perception principle we are experiencing today in virtual art. (Wolfgang Kemp, Der Betrachter ist im Bild, The Viewer is Inside the Picture. Sciences of Art and Reception Aesthetics, Köln 1985) American Myron Krueger the development of computer-controlled Interactive Art from 1969. “He and his co-operation designed the space Glow flow, with pressure sensitive sensors on its floor, loudspeakers in the four corners of the room and tubes with colored suspensions on the walls. “ (The History of the Interface in Interactive Art, Söke Dinkla, 1994) Studying the application of interactive art in architecture and interior design has more meaning today, because the development of the technology gives artists more potential to create. For instance, digital art allows people to experience artwork in a better way by changing the color effects, lighting design, and active environment. Architecture with interactive design costs less energy, providing more comfort, and organizing better space efficiency, flexibility has becoming the challenge in the future. Conclusion Seeking for the new way for healthcare treatment is expected for architects and interior designers. Fortunately, it has been conducted in the academic programs in some graduate schools and introduced into design project.

CODE AND GUIDELINES

ADA/ UNIVERSAL DESIGN REQUIREMENTS ACCESSIBLE ROUTES All routes that are used by people in wheelchairs or with mobility equipment are considered their “accessible routes.” Such a route must meet the requirements in Chapter 4 of the ADA Standards. They must be 36 inches wide, but the width can be reduced to 32 inches if the path has a depth of 24 inches. The running slopes along the accessible route should be no greater than 5%, and the cross slope should be no greater than 2%. If slopes are greater, it becomes harder to maneuver along the path. If a slope along the accessible route is between 5% and 8.33%, that is considered a ramp and it must then have handrails on both sides, landings at the top and bottom of the ramp run, and edge protection as specified in Section 405 of the ADA Standards. If any part of the accessible route crosses a curb, a curb ramp must be installed. The requirements for a curb ramp are similar to those for ramps, except that they do not need to have handrails. The minimum width is 36 inches, and the maximum slope must be 1:12. A 36‐inch landing at the top of the ramp must also be provided. DOOR CLEARANCE Doors used for passage or entry must have a minimum clear width of 32 inches, although most commercial doors are specified as 36 inches wide. A 36‐inch‐wide door will ensure compliance, since a 32‐inch clear width is required for a wheelchair to get through. In addition to the appropriate width, the door hardware must be a type that does not require tight grasping and twisting of the wrist to operate. Also there needs to be enough maneuvering clearance at the door that a person in a wheelchair can easily reach the door handle, open the door, and get out of the way of the door to get through. The clearance to reach the door handle must be unobstructed by any permanent objects, including sinks or counters. The maneuvering clearances at the door must also be at no more than 2%, since a person in a wheelchair would not be able to reach the door handle without the worry of rolling down a steep slope before opening the door. Door opening forces should also be 5 lbs. maximum, and the door must not close in less than 5 seconds. An exterior door does not have the same requirements, since there are many factors that affect the opening force of an exterior door. Automatic doors are sometimes installed as the exterior doors to make it easier for a person with RESTROOM If urinals are provided and there is more than one, then it must also be accessible. An accessible urinal must be mounted

CODE AvND GUIDELINES

no higher than 17 inches a.f.f., must have an elongated rim that projects 13½ inch, flush controls no higher than 44 inches a.f.f., and a forward approach of clear floor space. If there is only one, then it is not required to be accessible. If there are more than six water closets and urinals located within one restroom, then in addition to the standard accessible stall, a stall that is referred to as “ambulatory” must be provided. This is not for wheelchairs but for people who have other mobility issues, such as using walkers, crutches, or braces (see Figure 1.27). Within the single‐user restroom, the door may swing into the clear floor space of any fixture as long as there is a 30 inch x 48 inch space beyond the swing of the door. This is so that if a door opens, a person can get out of the way of the door and not get hit. In a multiuser restroom, this is not allowed, since there is no way to control who is coming in and when. A single‐user restroom can be locked once a person is using it, which prevents a different person from coming in at the same time. In a multiuser restroom, since there is no lock, if the door swings into the clear floor space of the lavatory, for example, and a person in a wheelchair is washing her hands, the person washing her hands could get hit by the door.

SITE EVALUATION

Location: The building is in the area of three components: healthcare facility (west), park (back of the building), commercial facility(east). There are prosand cons for being close to each one, so the future design should take these issues into consideration. Being around by majority of residential buildings and senior housing, which provide a friendly environment. The security in this neighborhood is in the good condition. Healthcare facilities will be a benefit factor for future design of healthcare center or senior community. Building Size: The total building area is Âą 38900 sq ft, which is only enough for developing a small-scale hotel. However, since it is an independent building, so there is an opportunity to expand the space down to the basement and up to the rooftop in order to create more space for more facilities. Building Shape: The shape of the building is simply rectangle which is easy to divide into each spaces. Nevertheless, the area per floor is wide and deep, so adding some opening for the natural light and reducing the sense of pressure from the space would be taken into consideration.
