De5ign focus points

Focus points	Purpose
Design management	Coordinated design process built on collaboration between all design stakeholders in consideration of the asset’s whole life cycle (EC, 1992; GIRI, 2018)
Design for demolition	Planning ahead to reduce exposure to hazardous substances, identifying critical dismantling sequences including stability concepts, items and materials for repurposing, reuse and recycling (Cruz Rios et al., 2015)
Occupational diseases and cancers	Eliminating or reducing workplace hazards including heat, noise, dust, hazardous chemicals, unsafe machines and psychological stress, which cause occupational diseases and some cancers (ILO, 2023b)
Crime prevention	Using good design as a tool to improve the perception of safety and prevent crime in cities and public places by deterring the opportunist criminal who is influenced by both the physical opportunity and the probability of being caught (ISO, 2021)
Well-being design	Building design considering thermal comfort, natural and artificial lighting, indoor air quality, acoustic considerations, nourishment, movement and exercise (AIA, 2023)
Inclusive design	Design for individuals considering age, gender, fitness and fatigue so that all people, regardless of age or ability, can easily access, understand and freely use all buildings and spaces to the greatest extent possible (BSI, 2018, 2022)
Design for dementia	Bioethics of space design in the built environment for persons (and their carers) living with the symptoms of memory, thinking and social ability loss (Sturge et al., 2021)
Climate change and mental health	Understanding the impact and link of climate change to not only the environment, but also as a rising threat to mental health and psychosocial well-being (WHO, 2022b)
Sustainability	Sustainable design and procurement activities which reduce consumption of non-renewable resources, reduce carbon dioxide and minimise waste in line with the UN sustainable development goals (ISO, 2017b, 2020; UN, 2023)
