Herlev Hospital participatory process completed

Friday, October 1st, 2010

The second stage of the participatory process for the rebuilding of the
Cardiology Department of the Herlev Hospital has been completed.

The project has aimed at involving the different groups of users of the
Cardiology Department in the process of re-building by means of U_Build, a
webbased dialogue- and process management software developed by MUTOPIA.
U_Build enables stakeholders to comment a given project under development in
a virtual on-line forum by means of 3D realtime technology.

The outcome of the dialogue has fuelled the design process, while in the
same time acting as a ‘proof test’ of the design development.
