TheSquare Episode 12 · The Meaning of “Anti” · w/ Stacey Brimmer & Carina Clark

Before you reach for your disinfectant spray, you may want to brush up on your “anti-“ vocabulary. In the midst of a global pandemic, antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antiviral materials and supplies are trending and attractive as we look to keep ourselves safe, minimize the spread of infectious diseases, and create healthy spaces that help to reestablish trust in public spaces. While powerful tools, effective use of these materials requires that we understand their claims as well as when and how to best use them. In this week’s episode of TheSquare, interior designers in Corgan’s healthcare practice, Stacey Brimmer and Carina Clark, discuss the different kinds of “anti-“ materials available, their pros and cons, and best practices in interior design. Combining science and design, they study the intended uses and challenges of “anti-“ materials including topical or heavy metal solutions and mechanical and biomimicry options to provide both caution and creativity for their use in the built environment. From the challenges of biofilm and layers of bacteria to the difference between cleaning and disinfecting, Stacey and Carina adapt what they’ve developed from years of minimizing infection control in hospitals and healthcare settings to designing safer, healthier spaces in post-COVID-19 world.
