Simulating complex problems and finding elegant solutions
Immersive Design
A series of simulation techniques used to re-create a situation or environment, allowing participants to experience a representation of a real event for the purpose of understanding systems or human actions.
Our Mission
Immersive Design uses all facets of simulation to accelerate and refine the development of systems, spaces, technology, and teams. The four pillars of our Simulation-Informed Design platform — Design, Build, Train, Excel — describe how we harness the power of simulation to create intelligent designs, safe systems, and elite teams.

DESIGN
Don’t think you have it right — know that you do
Immersive Design makes architectural schematics jump off the page in three dimensions. Table-top exercises, full-scale mock-ups and in-situ simulation paired with in-depth debriefings, video review and hazard analysis generate robust, user-informed data sets that in turn inform better, safer space design, on a more efficient timeline.
DESIGN
Don’t think you have it right— know that you do
Our process makes architectural designs and schematics jump off the page in three dimensions with table-top exercise, full-scale mock-ups and in-situ simulation. In-depth debriefings, video review and hazard analysis assist with optimizing the design of new infrastructure and future cost avoidance by way of prospective, data-informed decisions.
BUILD
Immersive Design crash testing for equipment, systems, and technology
Empathize with the user, define and ideate solutions, then test, prototype, and revise – Our Immersive Design tools place the end user at the centre of the design process. Simplify a user interface, streamline a complex pathway, and customize equipment to suit your team’s needs.
BUILD
Pre-launch crash testing for equipment, systems, and technology
Empathize with the user, define and ideate solutions; then test, prototype, and revise – We offer Simulation-Informed Design tools that place the end user at the centre of the design process. Simplify a user interface, streamline a complex pathway, and customize equipment to suit your team’s needs.
TRAIN
Immersive Design coaching and team training
ID coaching: We work alongside your local simulation experts, coaching and assisting with project conceptualization, simulation scenario development and debriefing plans.
Pre- and post-implementation training: Leverage the deep engagement and buy-in created by expert-crafted simulation scenarios to enhance uptake, safety and efficiency of new processes, systems, or technology.
Practice until you can’t get it wrong: Opening a new high stakes work environment? Implementing a new technology or tool? Train expert teams with simulation before going live.

It was a pleasure working with Chris and Andrew in preparation for our reopening under COVID protocols. They helped us think through all of the risk factors and prepare a comprehensive, well-considered solution for a most complex set of problems.
Imagine a radical collaboration that breaks down the boundaries between the disciplines of clinicians and healthcare design through a truly integrated process… Advanced Performance is revolutionizing how clinical spaces are conceptualized, tested and implemented.
GoodLife’s work with APHD enabled us to develop a leading-edge safety standard during the COVID-19 pandemic. With their ongoing counsel and recommendations, GoodLife was able to lead the fitness industry in keeping our members, associates and communities as safe as possible.
