Human-Based Design and Digital Fabrication: Behavioral Mapping Parametric Knitter (BMPK)

AbstractReducing human stress has become a critical issue in contemporary architecture. The design of the physical environment plays an important role in the ease of wayfinding as people navigate a path through their surroundings. The goal of this project is to create an automated system that can analyze human behavior within a building, generate architectural forms based on the results, and then fabricate an optimal interior space design for facilitating the observed behaviors. The Behavioral Mapping Parametric Knitter (BMPK) juxtaposes key characteristics of biological design (modularity, robustness, homeostasis, and adaptation) with smart technologies. The BMPK Robot is an aggregated system that observes human behaviors, analyzes this behavioral data, designs parametric patterns, and then weaves spatial designs. The robot extracts data about complex human behaviors using intelligent sensors embedded within the environment. Knowledge extracted from this behavioral data is then used to design a parametric pattern. Finally, the robot employs this pattern to determine an optimal space structure to make the observed human behaviors as easy as possible. The spatial designs produced by the BMPK Robot are thus intended to help optimize the dynamic human behaviors that are already observed within the built environment. The results from this research project will lead to reduced stress and improved wayfinding among end-users. In addition, the research will produce a design tool capable of measuring the performance of different architectural forms in regard to how well they facilitate human behavior.

Improving Design Performance of Students in Interior Architecture Undergraduate Education

Considering the developing conditions in interior architecture undergraduate education and inevitability of performing restructuring works to this end is a reality expressed also in the literature. Performance-based design is one of the key concepts in this approach. When the works as to interior design project performance are examined it can be observed that conducting assessments of user recognition correctly and fully at the preliminary stage of project is an important component affecting the design performance. This is because the success of interior space design is measured by considering to what extent the requirements of the users are met. In this context, the purpose of this study has been designated as the creation of documents the students will benefit from while determining user requirements at the preliminary stage of the project within the purview of Interior Architecture Design Studio courses within the interior design undergraduate education. The scope of the study is limited to only residential interior design projects with an eye to reach a more elaborate result. Literature and practical application resources were researched to determine the documents utilized for recognizing the users in residential interior design as methodology at the first stage in line with the scope and purpose defined. Subsequently, all the documents obtained were examined by making comparisons in a systematic manner and the shortcomings of the cited documents were revealed. And in the final stage, suggestions were made with a view to overcome these shortcomings. It will be possible to determine user requirements more accurately through utilization of documents created in line with suggestions to be made within the purview of the study at the preliminary stage of residential interior design projects by interior architecture undergraduate students and this will increase the students' success as to designing significantly.

ENHANCEMENT OF THE DESIGNER PERFORMANCE IN OFFICE INTERIOR DESIGN

It is also a reality in the literature that the developing and changing conditions have become inevitable for being considered in the area of interior space design and application and being directed towards restructuring works in this regard. In this approach, one of the key concepts is “performance-based design”. It is also being tried to develop models intended for determination of factors affecting the performance of a specific actor, within a certain period, among the works related to the performance. One of the most important actors for interior space design is the designer. In Kleeman’s opinion, designer’s success primarily depends on his/her capability to fulfill accurately and completely the evaluations intended for recognizing the user at the preliminary stage. Because, the success of interior space design, is measured through to what extent it meets the user’s desires and needs. In this context, the purpose of the study has been decided as reviewing the documents used during determination of the user’s desires and needs at the preliminary stage and recommending necessary revisions in order to acquire complete, accurate data. The scope of the study has been limited to only office interior space design projects for the purpose of reaching detailed results. In line with this scope and objective defined, literature and practical application resources have been investigated as the methodology at the first stage in order to determine the documents utilized towards recognition of the user at office design. Afterwards, the entire documents obtained have been examined by comparing in a systematic manner and deficiencies of these documents have been set forth. And at the last stage, some suggestions have been made for elimination of these deficiencies.

The effect of furnishing on perceived spatial dimensions and spaciousness of interior space.

Despite the ubiquity of interior space design, there is virtually no scientific research on the influence of furnishing on the perception of interior space. We conducted two experiments in which observers were asked to estimate the spatial dimensions (size of the room dimensions in meters and centimeters) and to judge subjective spaciousness of various rooms. Experiment 1 used true-to-scale model rooms with a square surface area. Furnishing affected both the perceived height and the spaciousness judgments. The furnished room was perceived as higher but less spacious. In Experiment 2, rooms with different square surface areas and constant physical height were presented in virtual reality. Furnishing affected neither the perceived spatial dimensions nor the perceived spaciousness. Possible reasons for this discrepancy, such as the influence of the presentation medium, are discussed. Moreover, our results suggest a compression of perceived height and depth with decreasing surface area of the room.

Jules Wabbes and the Modern Design of American Embassies

ABSTRACTThe American postwar policy for the construction of embassies was shaped in accordance to a modernist design conception that fostered an image of the USA as a future-oriented country. The Foreign Buildings Office (FBO) of the State Department in Washington was responsible for the approval of plans both for new buildings and for interior design. Whereas the architects for the new buildings were based in America, this was not always the case for the interior designers. For instance, the Belgian Jules Wabbes (1919–74), interior designer, furniture creator, and businessman based in Brussels, was called upon to collaborate in the design of new interior spaces for several American diplomatic institutions, including the embassies in The Hague (The Netherlands), Rabat (Morocco), and London (UK). This article will, on the basis of new archival research, substantiate Wabbes's role and his relation with the FBO, focusing especially on the embassy in The Hague as a case study. The furniture that Wabbes provided was mostly based upon designs of Edward J. Wormley for Dunbar. We will argue that these designs, as well as Wabbes's further input as an interior designer, matched in many ways the architectural qualities of Marcel Breuer's design for the building, while at the same time responding to concerns of diplomatic staff about comfort and respectability. Wabbes and Wormley can thus both be considered to work in the line of what Kristina Wilson has labeled “livable modernism,” a style of interior decoration that upholds many modernist values (sobriety, simplicity, truth to materials) but combines them with traditional references (e.g. through the use of wood as a dominant material) and with meticulous craftsmanship.

Design of Dwellings and Interior Family Space in China: Understanding the History of Change and Opportunities for Improved Sustainability Practices

This paper reviews briefly the recent history of dwelling design in China. It notes the rapid changes that have taken place since the 1980s and identifies the way contemporary procurement processes leave out the final fit-out and decoration/refurbishment. A range of stakeholders were interviewed, and access was gained to drawings and other technical data that indicated how the secondary processes were carried out. These are largely ungoverned by regulation in the same way necessary for initial design. The key group is the occupants who drive the fit-out and decoration according to personal and cultural requirements, but often with less than perfect understanding of sustainability. The interior design industry has developed rapidly over the same period and was initially lacking in professional knowledge and understanding (something which can still be found). Advice provided to dwelling occupants was based more on appearance than function and efficiency. Over the same period, beneficial modifications to construction processes have been introduced in relation to structural design, and it should be possible to do the same for sustainability-related design issues. The paper advocates: more regulation; better assessment techniques; more information and guidance for home-owners; and a greater focus on energy issues.

A DESIGN APPROACH USING BIO-GEOMETRY IN INTERIOR ARCHITECTURAL SPACES: Reference to Heal Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Since the beginning of the universe, people live in a middle of a huge amount of different types of energies which affect them, include what is useful, and what is harmful. The variation of these effects either direct or indirect was because of the role played by both designers architect and interior architect in the formation of voids. Both were responsible for the interior space design to avoid environmental pollution, and negative impacts to take the advantage of the positive in improving people performance in the interior architectural spaces, and the society in general. When we consider that at least 90% of our life is spent indoors, the significance of this sentence becomes apparent.Scientists have proved that the interior architectural space contains different types of energy. This has a negative and positive impact on human beings, some problems appeared like the absence of the concept earth energy and other environmental concepts associated with it, in addition to its impact on human health and performance in the interior architectural spaces, resulting in health problems for people in those spaces, Also the positive impact of bio-geometry on human health, through its application in the interior spaces to achieve a balance in the internal energy, thus helps in the treatment of many diseases. The main research aim is to use the principles and theories of Bio-Geometry in the interior architectural spaces, to achieve the best results to maintain human health, the efficiency of performance, and modify human behavior. In addition to formulate a clear framework and methodology as a design approach through which the designer either an architect or interior can deal with the negative in the interior architectural spaces using the science of Bio-Geometry, the paper followed the mentioned methodology to achieve the best results. This research Paper focuses on the importance of the science of biogeometry on human health as one of the application for the new science, the research will be applied on children who suffers from ADHD that considered as one of the new sciences that give more care to human health and performance, all results after testing the biogeometry will be statically examined by SPAA program and compare them all by the end to proof the ability of the new science to help in healing some health problems.

My Space is Everywhere

Needs and motivations of children are complex and dynamic in long and short term, as are the needs of families in shared living spaces. Designing home environments which enable flexible use calls for better understanding of long-term and short-term needs. We explored the mapping of the psychological concepts of affordances and motivation to inform the design of spaces that might satisfy children's needs in a family home context. The paper is the result of a cooperation between architects and psychologists. Using a research by design method, a number of design ideas were developed which explored the use of space and objects to encourage transient ownership and interactions. Resulting ideas for the design of interior spaces were explored and discussed with the aim to provide a directly applicable framework for idea development in the context of spaces for children in a domestic setting.
