This title will be of interest to students of architecture.
Architectural Programming: Creative Techniques for Design Professionals
Architectural programming is the key to successful design. It is the crucial process of gathering, organizing, and assessing a client's building-use information. This process includes design concepts and program objectives ... staff and employee projections ... current and future space requirements ... adjacencies and relationships ... equipment and utility requirements ... project cost ... and more. This unique book and diskette provide architects, engineers, facilities managers, corporate and institutional administrators, and others with an effective method for gathering and assessing data needed to successfully design virtually any type of building - from office towers and educational facilities to laboratories and medical facilities.
Transforming our World Through Design, Diversity and Education
Good design is enabling, and each and every one of us is a designer. Universal Design is widely recognized an important concept that should be incorporated in all person-centred policies. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) clearly stipulates that the most effective way of delivering on the promise of an inclusive society is through a Universal Design approach. Sitting at the intersection of the fields of Higher Education and Universal Design, this book presents papers delivered at the Universal Design and Higher Education in Transformation Congress (UDHEIT2018), held in Dublin, Ireland, from 30 October to 2 November 2018. This event brings toget...
New Directions in Urban Public Housing

Situating Design in Alberta
Situating Design in Alberta makes the case that design has the potential to drive economic growth, improve quality of life, and promote sustainability in the province and across the country. Contributors bring both scholarly and practice-based perspectives and come from diverse disciplines including architecture, interior design, industrial design, and visual communications. The collection is organized around four main topics—history, education, business, and sustainability—within which the authors explore a wide range of issues. This synergy of different design approaches lends a sense of forward momentum to the field, stimulates reflection about opportunities and challenges for both practitioners and policy makers, and provides a model for future studies in other regions. Foreword by Douglas J. Cardinal. Contributors: Tim Antoniuk, Ken Bautista, Carlos Fiorentino, Maria Goncharova, Andrea Hirji, Mark Iantkow, Barry Johns, Lyubava Kroll, Courtenay McKay, Skye Oleson-Cormack, Isabel Prochner, Janice Rieger, Elizabeth Schowalter, Megan Strickfaden, Tyler Vreeling, Ron Wickman
Programming Interior Environments
Programming Interior Environments introduces a four-component framework you can use to program interiors, and twelve methods for you to gather, analyze and synthesize programmatic information to take the guesswork out of your studio projects. This book studies the Student Programming Model: a realistic programming process for college and university interior design students that allows students to create accurate and in-depth programming documents essential for informing the design process. This is done whilst keeping in mind that students are often working solo, with imaginary clients and end users in mind, and collecting program information within strict time constraints. Including three appendices of student programs created following these guidelines, to help you understand how to apply the framework components and inquiry methods in your own work, this book is ideal for students and professionals in interior design and interior architecture.
Inclusive Buildings, Products & Services
The central focus of this book involves the strategies and processes that are based on the Universal Design philosophy and principles from three different areas: architecture, product design, and information and communication technologies (ICT). The book examines a key question: What is meant by a Universal Design strategy and how can these approaches be developed, understood, and practiced within the different design disciplines? To examine this question, architects, product designers, educators, and ICT researchers were invited to reflect on their own thoughts and practices, and to write about the design processes and principles they use to create Universal Design solutions. Inclusive Buildings, Products and Services will be of interest to postgraduate students in design and architecture, as well as professional designers, architects, engineers, and business leaders or managers who are working with Universal Design in some capacity.
