Fashion & Interior Design

For courses in Space Planning and Facility Management.

Written to emphasize the relationships of classical planning principles to the layout of space, this comprehensive text illustrates ways in which these principles apply to design programs of the past and present. The primary focus is on planning office space, but it also includes a chapter on space programming and planning in a residential context. CAD and CAFM applications are emphasized throughout and two advanced chapters discuss relational databases and their use in computer-aided facility management.
