Supporting behavioral and mental health care facilities’ design advances, Apogee Architectural Metals will be exhibiting at MindSpaces25. Hosted by The Center for Health Design, the event is Sept. 15-16 at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore Inner Harbor.
MindSpaces25’s two-day, in-person workshop brings together design, facility and care professionals for an in-depth exploration of how facilities can better support mental and behavioral health across diverse care settings. The event offers a blend of expert presentations and interactive roundtable discussions, promoting meaningful dialogue and problem-solving around key design challenges. Each day includes “mini-expo” breaks, where attendees also learn from exhibitors.
Apogee Architectural Metals team will be showcasing its Wausau DT Series window products, which have answered the needs for window solutions in behavioral care and psychiatric facilities across the U.S. for more than 40 years. Engineered for behavioral care settings, these windows withstand high impacts from the interior. This ensures they are suitable for containing patients, restricting their passage to unauthorized areas, or delaying and frustrating escape attempts.
Our team assists building owners, facility managers, architects and contractors in navigating product selection criteria to meet project design requirements. Wausau window products also meet the high-performance levels necessary for such stringent requirements as:
- California Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI), Office of Statewide Hospital Planning and Development (OSHPD) Building Standards Unit
- Florida Product Approval (FPA)
- New York State Office of Mental Health (NYS-OMH)
- S. Department of Defense (DoD)
- S. General Services Administration (GSA) Interagency Security Committee (ISC)
- S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
In addition to Wausau Window products, Apogee Architectural Metals also will display EFCO and Tubelite aluminum-framed storefront, curtain wall, entrance, window and sun shade systems. These best-in-class products enhance buildings’ performance and aesthetics, contributing to healing and wellness.
MindSpaces25 focuses on real-world applications and cross-disciplinary perspectives. Attendees will gain an understanding of how intentional design decisions can improve outcomes for patients, families, and care teams alike. Whether shaping clinical environments, specifying materials or rethinking patient experiences, this workshop offers valuable knowledge and practical tools to elevate the role of design in behavioral health care.
