design practice, programming, computer presentation drawings, historic preservation
process work: how to evolve a project; keep it

programming: basic criteria a client wants to have happen; programming portion extensive
-your design wil be shown different types of methods (tabulate, document etc) you will decide which works best for you. apply to the design; about what you perfer
*your design is only as good as the information you extract from the client*; you prompt them to tell you things; they don't always know what they want

how do we communicate it?
-ALWAYS been verbal or written narrative
-graphically: NOW, with drawings, models, types of mechanical progress, (later: digital progress); more techincal as you go along

historic preservation:
building that have historic nation register, tax credits for cuts
-historic reuse: (remodel) adaptive hisotric elements and items to keep but not to preserve but to adapt it
*ex: downtown LN Railroad depot- special magnet high school; cultivate 9th graders to engineering
-historic preservation: restoring it to it's former grandeur

Sax's; historical infulence
political, physical, social influence at the turn of the century that influenced design
-industrial revolution
-global warming
-bau hause
-war (WWII)

-reduction of the carbon foot print

Mary Beth
-not all about the looks; can be both pretty and functional & safe
environmental details; contribution of interior design to contemporary society
-materialism
-able to influence psychological considerations and client's emotions and feelings through: acoustics; functional (for personalization, digital accessibility); making spaces more pleasant; thermally; lighting;
-life saftey codes, ADA compliant (signage- universal design)

-as a profession more than what we do; community, charitable events (habitat humanity)

Proximixs:
interrelated observations and theories of peoples use of space as a specialized elaboration of culture
-space planning; NO NO NO NO: chairs back to back; 3 seat couches in a public space

residential:
kitchen: work triangle- not too close or far away; conversational or tv area; bathroom

Klinkheimer: Color and Light
-color stimulation:
warmer, dark loud reds, oranges:
healthcare application: loud weird colors reflect onto patient; no distorting a patients true color
darker colors: makes room smaller; lighting & mirrors can expand space
long corridors: trick eye to make it foreshortened; dark color at end
dark colors with a light to make small space elongated; contrasting colors can be successful ;)
*rational reasoning*
