Anna Fox and Dr Ruby Lipson-Smith - NOVELL Redesign Project

In this episode, Daniel Moore speaks with registered architect and Associate at STH, Anna Fox, and Dr Ruby Lipson-Smith who is not a registered architect but a researcher at the MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour and Development, at Western Sydney University, specialising in co-design for healthcare environments and services. Ruby’s research challenges how traditional healthcare environments, programs, and technologies are designed and used, and how to measure their impact on users' experience, behaviour, health, and cognition. Ruby manages the NOVELL Redesign project, a Living Lab that brings together people with lived experience of stroke, policymakers, researchers, and designers such as Anna and the team at STH to co-design stroke rehabilitation environments.
