Space Planning Basics shows how to approach space planning in a way that ensures all considerations are met, from preliminary floor plans, to client programming needs, to how factors such as building codes and environmental factors affect a spatial composition, to sustainability. With step-by-step methodology based on the author team's combined decades of design experience, this authoritative guide is the de facto reference on the subject.
The text includes current design approaches, building evaluation processes, structural guidelines to replicate the current professional process with a clear, highly practical, and comprehensive approach, and basic programming skills. Text, drawings, graphics, and practice exercises are included throughout to reinforce learning, and each chapter contains recommended resources for further reading and study.
Updates to this newly revised Fifth Edition of Space Planning Basics include:
New content on preparing for stakeholder engagement and new drawings, diagrams, and matrices throughout
An explanation of evidence-based design and the importance of health and wellbeing as well as the latest developments in sustainable design and certification requirements
Updates on spatial relationships and building shells with new diagrams and coverage of universal design and human factors
Updated resources for instructors on a companion website including new exercises, CAD files, and interactive graphs
Space Planning Basics delivers a complete, all-in-one introduction on the subject and is an essential principal resource for thousands of designers and students in space planning or interior design courses.
