Looking for resources/case studies based on EBD approach to redo the interiors of a very big hospital in Saudi Arabia in the context of Color/texture/patterns.

    We are in the process of developing an interior redesign of a major hospital in Saudi Arabia and am looking for Evidence-Based Design (EBD) case studies or research that explore the role of color, texture, and pattern in healthcare settings.

    Our goal is to create healing, high-performance spaces that reflect Saudi cultural identity while meeting international standards of safety, comfort, and functionality.

    If you know of relevant EBD studies, design frameworks, or post-occupancy evaluations-particularly from large hospital projects or warm-climate contexts-I would be very grateful for your recommendations.

    Thank you for sharing your insights and resources.

    Best regards,

    I hope you already know about the Center for Health Design and their Knowledge Repository, but if you don't it is the perfect place to find relevant research and studies. Enjoy!!

    P. S. You can have them prepare research summaries for you.
