In our free Webinar, “Building Wellness in the Age of COVID,” Eric Booth, AIA, President of Desmone Architects, discusses with our President/CEO Laura Nee, how these changes can contribute to wellness in design—and not just by mitigating the transmission of pathogens, but also in terms of promoting wellbeing more generally, and innovatively.
 

About Eric:
 
Eric Booth_VPOAs President of Desmone, an architecture and interior design firm with offices in Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and the Delmarva Peninsula, Eric Booth strategizes, innovates and implements through all facets of the company.  Eric strives to elevate the perception of the architecture profession by structuring the design process around the fundamental reason a building is constructed: to serve people.  This conviction is evident as Eric led the Desmone team to pioneer the design and construction of a 25,000 SF office addition, which received WELL Gold Certification in March of 2020 – the first private office to achieve such a certification in Western Pennsylvania. As a result, Eric has become a noted thought leader on how to design, execute and maintain spaces that focus on the physical and mental health of the human occupant. Eric has been featured in numerous media outlets to inform others on how to manage a post-COVID world. These include national and regional panels, podcasts, television interviews and blogs.
