The second edition of the ASID 2014 Joel Polsky Prize winning Human
Factors in the Built Environment is a comprehensive and up-to-date
resource that integrates the relationship of the human body and space
planning to the design process for designers involved with the physical
planning and detailing of interiors. Key topics include proxemics,
anthropometrics, ergonomics, sensory components, diversity, global
concerns, health and safety, environmental considerations, special
populations and universal (inclusive) design. The text broadly covers
space planning applications and the relationship of human factors to the
design process for commercial and residential spaces from programming to
post-occupancy evaluation. Nussbaumer addresses barrier-free design for
new construction and retrofitting issues, and various contract design
types such as offices, hospitality, and healthcare design. A global
approach throughout includes U.S. imperial and metric systems of
measurement.
