What motivates me is solving a problem, but the reward is in making a difference in someone's life. No other field of design touches people in the same way as healthcare architecture – when they are at their most vulnerable and in need. How can architecture soothe and calm those in pain and distress? How can the way we design space reduce the burden of a long shift? Those are the questions I ask myself every day.
