As part of neurodiversity week, the Space Planning team hosted a co-design workshop to develop ideas for the delivery of a sensory space on campus. This was an opportunity to get both staff and students involved to assist in providing ideas and contributing to the design of the space. The workshop explored what the best practice model in higher education looks like and what makes a space truly calming and inclusive regarding textures, lighting, layout and sensory spaces.
