My research is exploring how design can support the expression of everyday personal aesthetic preferences in dementia:

How much do visual aesthetic preferences reflect a sense of identity?
Can an understanding of our aesthetic preferences help us to collaborate in the curation of our personal space as dementia progresses ?
Using practice based design methodologies: everyday objects, colour choice and personal space as critical artefacts to explore expression of everyday aesthetic preferences
