The Interior Plan is an introductory-level text introducing students
to the process of interior design space planning. Topics include the
design of effective spatial sequences, functional relationships among
project parts, arrangement of furniture, planning effective circulation
systems, making spaces accessible, and designing safe environments with
efficient emergency egress systems. Exercises throughout the book
facilitate learning by encouraging students to apply ideas and concepts
immediately after reading about them. In the third edition, the author
expands on the evolution of design ideas and how they affect interior
environments and the people who use them, thinking sustainably, and how
interior elevations and reflective ceilings affect the plan.
