About me...Eduardo Daniel Lam doesn’t only live life but experiences it to the fullest drawing inspiration from every source he comes across. Born in South America, Eduardo has Peruvian and Chinese blood coursing through his veins and his upbringings reflect both cultures. Uprooted to south Florida Eduardo excelled in his early studies and graduated from a Magnet Engineering program while at Stranahan High School. Soon after he ventured to the University of Miami and obtained a dual bachelor’s in Structural Engineering and Architecture.
A remarkable feature is that his scrupulous attention to detail and quick pace is no compensation for the production quality and reliability of his work. Eduardo invests every ounce of his fervor and talent into each project and undertaking he does. Having worked a wealth of internships, receiving his E.I. in engineering, working/studying internationally, and honing his crafts, Eduardo Lam is a designer in every sense of the word.
“Desgin is about mastering the practice of viewing the world through different lenses. One must possess the ability to simultaneously be mindful of the individual while considering everything from global issues to the finest of details.”

Every space is an opportunity to reflect the firm’s branding. Even mundane tasks in the copy room are brightened with clever and purposeful design.
Upcycling discarded wine paraphernalia gives the kitchen a raw translucent effect which sheds light on the firm’s up-front approach to design.

A graphic wall provided wayfinding for users. Using the concept of an elephant’s journey we created landmarks as a way for the patients to use their current loca-
tion to recall other locations.
The five senses: An open floor plan for a bistro would remind patients to eat as the aroma would engage their sense of smell. Adjacent to the bistro is a music area to
ease the patients with nostalgic sounds.

Evidence Based Design:□ Signage should be legible, simple, and consistent for easy navigation.□ Wandering should be encouraged but controlled.□ Social interaction uses the brain’s cognitive function, engages the senses, and keeps the brain active.□ Connection to nature allows the patient to feel less constrained and more at peace.
An appropriate amount of environmental stimulation can have a positive effect on Alzheimer’s patients.

Conference room
The ceiling conditions inform the wandering path, and circles around nodes, so there is a seamless beginning and end. Furthermore, flooring changes should be subtle but with high contrast to verticle elements.
Flexibility of spaces is paramount for employees with limited office space. For example, A break room that doubles as informal work space.

The main body of the house can be shipped on one truck (to minimize shipping costs) and quickly deployed on the site. Sliding modules contract into the main
body during shipping and roll out a the site to maximize the floor area.
The design incorporates passive and active lighting strategies to create visual com-fort, promote energy efficiency, and utilizes dimmers for comfort levels based on
the age-in-place concept.

Worker bees cooperate to find food and in doing so collect pollen on their limbs, causing cross-pollination
