Abstract

The research on Healthcare Architecture is inherently multidisciplinary. The
research is conducted in several areas such as care sciences/nursing,
architecture, landscape architecture, medicine and environmental
psychology. This kind of research therefore often provides a meeting place
for the complex and cross-border issues that modern healthcare is facing
(Van Noorden, 2015). But its interdisciplinary character also means a risk to
be outside of everyone's responsibility when it comes to research funding
(Centrum för vårdens arkitektur, 2014). An overview of current research is
needed in order to understand knowledge gaps, state of the art and to create
an outset for further research and programs. A review of the current and
previous ARCH conferences organised in the Nordic countries contributes to
this overview and provides a platform for further development.
