FEATURED PRODUCTThe prevention of nosocomial infections is of paramount importance. Did you know that bathrooms and showers – particularly in shared spaces – are a veritable breeding ground for pathogen, some of which we see in the form of mold and the build-up of toxic bio films on surfaces.
Body fats and soap scums provide a rich food sauce for micro-organisms such as airborne bacteria Serratia Marcescens, which thrive in humid conditions.
We know that people with weakened immune systems are so much more vulnerable to the illnesses associated with infection and let’s face it, none of us go into the shower with an expectation that we might get sick.
So how do we keep those shower walls clean? Well let’s think big – BIG TILES.
Porcelanosa have developed XXL Hygienic Ceramic Tiles that are 5 feet long - which means just one piece fits the wall of a shower or tub surround. XTONE Porcelain slabs are 10 feet high which means a floor to ceiling surface with no joints.
Why does this matter? Well hygienic glaze will not harbor pathogen and surface impurities are easily removed to prevent build up – it is reassuring to know the evidence - INTERNATONAL STANDARDS Test ISO 10545 - Resistance to Stains - has determined these surfaces can be easily cleaned and the most difficult contaminants washed away, greatly reducing the need for aggressive chemicals.
Think about this…When we unload our dishwasher our ceramic tableware is sparkling clean, sanitized and fresh to use - again and again. The principle is the same with large ceramic walls - So, when planning the shower surrounds for your facilities please reach out to Porcelanosa. The designer in you will love the incredible options and your specification will deliver the longest & best lifecycle value bar none.

Cheryl’s guests today on the podcast are two very special souls; Bryan Langlands, FAIA, FACHA, EDAC, LEED GA Principal NBBJ Architecture and Edwin Beltran NCIDQ, FIIDA, ASSOC. AIA, Partner, Lead Interior Designer, NBBJ Architecture. In part 1 of today’s episode, Bryan shares the concept of “Moments of Generosity in Planning” and how, without comprising the budget, this method of planning, deeply improves the experience of patients and caregivers alike in ways you might not think of. Edwin shares the design concept he practices called Essentialism and how it plays a role in a value driven design. This and so much more about what’s happening now in healthcare design, planning and architecture on part 1 of today’s episode.
What happened during COVID and more specifically, what NBBJ projects failed?
Learn more about Bryan Langlands, Edwin Beltran and NBBJ by visiting: http://www.nbbj.com/.
In Part 1 of Cheryl’s conversation with Bryan and Edwin, they discuss:
With COVID, design budgets were slashed in healthcare projects. Learn how Bryan responded by creating what he calls, “Moments of Generosity in Planning.”
Listen to Bryan share examples of “Moments of Generosity” including what the benefits are of bringing light (from strategically placed windows) into the nursing station and caregivers areas of a hospital?
What are the financial benefits of using “Moments of Generosity in Planning?”
What does Edwin mean when he says, “Economy is extremely important today without compromising a value driven design or decreasing the budget?”
Edwin has referred to the word “Essentialism” to describe his approach to design with current projects. What is Essentialism and how does it play a role in a value driven design?

The prevention of nosocomial infections is of paramount importance. Did you know that bathrooms and showers – particularly in shared spaces – are a veritable breeding ground for pathogen, some of which we see in the form of mold and the build-up of toxic bio films on surfaces.
Body fats and soap scums provide a rich food sauce for micro-organisms such as airborne bacteria Serratia Marcescens, which thrive in humid conditions.
We know that people with weakened immune systems are so much more vulnerable to the illnesses associated with infection and let’s face it, none of us go into the shower with an expectation that we might get sick.
So how do we keep those shower walls clean? Well let’s think big – BIG TILES.
Porcelanosa have developed XXL Hygienic Ceramic Tiles that are 5 feet long - which means just one piece fits the wall of a shower or tub surround. XTONE Porcelain slabs are 10 feet high which means a floor to ceiling surface with no joints.
Why does this matter? Well hygienic glaze will not harbor pathogen and surface impurities are easily removed to prevent build up – it is reassuring to know the evidence - INTERNATONAL STANDARDS Test ISO 10545 - Resistance to Stains - has determined these surfaces can be easily cleaned and the most difficult contaminants washed away, greatly reducing the need for aggressive chemicals.
Think about this…When we unload our dishwasher our ceramic tableware is sparkling clean, sanitized and fresh to use - again and again. The principle is the same with large ceramic walls - So, when planning the shower surrounds for your facilities please reach out to Porcelanosa. The designer in you will love the incredible options and your specification will deliver the longest & best lifecycle value bar none. -

When K-LIFE comes into contact with light, it will be able to purify the air, expel harmful bacteria, and more. K-LIFE can easily be integrated into many applications – from wall coverings and claddings for ceilings, to custom tables, bars, sinks, shelving units and furniture. The application of K-LIFE in areas with high daily traffic, such as waiting rooms or reception areas, can assure a gradual decontamination of germs and lead to ongoing ecological benefits. Some research performed with KRION® K-LIFE, which has photocatalytic properties, proved that the material can significantly reduce the presence of bacteria.

FEATURED PRODUCTInspired by the properties of photocatalytic materials, Porcelanosa has evolved their KRION® Solid Surface material called K-LIFE. When K-LIFE comes into contact with light, it will be able to purify the air, expel harmful bacteria, and more. K-LIFE can easily be integrated into many applications – from wall coverings and claddings for ceilings, to custom tables, bars, sinks, shelving units and furniture. The application of K-LIFE in areas with high daily traffic, such as waiting rooms or reception areas, can assure a gradual decontamination of germs and lead to ongoing ecological benefits. Some research performed with KRION® K-LIFE, which has photocatalytic properties, proved that the material can significantly reduce the presence of bacteria. This revolutionary process has led to a patent pending, innovative, and exclusive product that will have a direct effect on our quality of life. Watch the video on KRION Natural Infection Prevention.

Phoebe shares, “Coming from agency life, I have a diverse background. I’ve touched technology and automotive and so many different segments. Many of our collaborators at the ALC also have those diverse backgrounds. We can literally call on people for the technology piece.

It is having that other dimension.” This and more about the Ageless Living Collaborative on part 2 of today’s episode with Phoebe Stein and David Ashen.
