Talking Murals: The use of murals in places where people with dementia live
People living with dementia may experience the design of the built environment differently and so it is important that any design features or decor are well thought out.
Talking Murals explores the potential impact of murals inside spaces where people with dementia live, or may visit. Intended for designers and managers of care homes, day centres, specialist housing units, hospitals and other services, this brief guide covers different ways murals can be used, the issues to consider when installing a mural and the potential benefits and risks to visitors or residents.
