Sketching Interiors: From Traditional to Digital SUINING DING —Indiana University, Purdue University–Fort Wayne

While written and oral communication skills are important, to be truly successful and effective a designer must be able express ideas graphically. Sketching Interiors: From Traditional to Digital covers basic freehand sketching skills with different media including pencils, inks and markers. Interior designers must employ quick freehand graphic sketches such as perspectives, elevations, plan views, and details in the design process to record their emerging ideas and explain their intent to others. The ability to transfer a concept to paper using hand drawing skills in order to think critically about the idea is a viable method of designing. Freehand drawing is used extensively in the design process especially schematic design. Drawings may record a detail, a piece of furniture, an accessory, or a space. Since digital media and communication technologies are bringing new tools to design, this book also presents the technique of transformation of freehand sketching to digital sophisticate drawing with Photoshop. It is also important for designers to understand when to use hand drawing techniques versus digital as well as how to use one to boost the advantages of the other. The edited drawings represent the characters of both freehand sketching and digital drawing. Therefore, the ability to draw and sketch becomes an important skill for designers to support a relaxed and fluid conversation between designer and their client, between a student and their instructor.

Designing for Cradle-to-Cradle: Examining the Process through Education and Experience ANNA MARSHALL-BAKER —University of North Carolina–Greensboro LISA M. TUCKER —Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

This book explores the design process used to develop cradle to cradle (c2c) projects beginning with the principles of c2c design and including programming, concept development, schematic design, design development, presentation, and evaluation. Selected entries from an international c2c residential design competition illustrate each stage of the design process discussed within the context of cradle to cradle principles. Designing for Cradle to Cradle applies the fundamental principles of the cradle to cradle sustainable philosophy to evidence-based sustainable design and offers solutions for making better green design decisions and addressing complex issues that threaten the built environment. While many titles address the design of sustainable buildings, this book is unique in addressing issues related to sustainable design at the point at which they occur in the design process.

The State of the Interior Design Profession Edited by CAREN S. MARTIN —University of Minnesota Edited by DENISE A. GUERIN —University of Minnesota Foreword by Eva Maddox For a full list of contributors, please visit our web site at www.fairchildbooks.com

The State of the Interior Design Profession provides an informed view of the interior design profession as it stands today and as the basis of purposeful, exciting discourse that will inspire you to consider your role and responsibility in developing the profession’s future. Martin and Guerin have identified 12 issues integral to the future development of the interior design profession. Renowned and emerging interior design thinkers (authors), who represent complementary and conflicting viewpoints on the same issue, have written their opinions (essays) in response to each issue. Their experiences are diverse; they have contributed to practice, industry, publication, research, education, engagement, and service—and many to several of these. Their responses reflect the currency of their opinions, thoughts, and research on the issue.

Informing Design

Informing Design suggests a pedagogy in which design decision making is informed by more than speculative hunches, prefer-ences, and intuition. In this collection of contributed chapters, leaders in both design practice and education share their expertise in such specialty areas as corporate, retail, and learning environments; healthcare; and

hospitality. Introductory chapters teach students to distinguish among information gathering, programming, and research; apply the findings of others; and conduct their own investigations. Other chapters illustrate how informed design decisions were applied to various building types.

Interior Design for Non-Western Cultures & Traditions VIBHAVARI JANI —Louisiana Tech University For a full list of contributors, please visit our website at www.fairchildbooks.com

The ongoing challenge for the design practitioner is to consider the changing face of the user—the client—when designing the environment today and in the future. This text ful-fills a huge void that exists in teaching resources on the non-Western cultures and provides a much-needed educational resource so that all educators can teach interior design from an inclusive perspective that acknowledges the contributions of all world cultures, not just western European traditions. Each chapter will represent a selected country and provide information on that country’s culture, design philosophies, theories, principles and ele-ments, and symbolic meaning evident in built forms, colors, patterns, and textiles, as told by contributors native to that country. In addition to providing in-depth information on featured countries, the book provides an overview of the cultures and traditions of the regions—Eurasia, Africa, and the Middle East.

Sustainable Building Systems and Construction for Designers LISA M. TUCKER —Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

This is the first text to view building construction and its systems through the lens of sustainability, providing an integrated approach to the principles of sustainable design as the way a building is created as opposed to an added topic appended to traditional con-struction information. As a practicing architect and interior designer, Tucker covers ALL systems including construction systems, mechanical systems, electrical and plumbing sys-tems, and interior systems for the first time in a single text. The technical knowledge and vocabulary presented here allow interior designers and architects to communicate more effectively amongst themselves as well as with engineers and contractors while collaborat-ing on projects, leading to more accurate solutions for problems related to a broad range of other building considerations with an impact on interior design.

Hand Drawing for Designers: Communicating Ideas through Architectural graphics DOUGLAS R. SEIDLER —Marymount University AMY KORTÉ —Boston Architectural Center

Hand drawing remains a powerful tool in conceptual design. Hand Drawing for Designers: Communicating Ideas through Architectural Graphics will show you how to use hand drawing to explore multiple design responses quickly and intuitively and to develop a successfully responsive design solution. The text approaches the act of drawing as a communication tool, valued within design firms for conceptual design, design development, and client presentations. The concepts and methods in the text build, progressing from an introduc-tion to drawing rationale to two- and three-dimensional drawing techniques and presenta-tion drawings. Designed to strengthen the user’s understanding of visual representation and technical drawing by visual teaching, Hand Drawing for Designers provides the skills for translating three-dimensional ideas into two-dimensional drawings that effectively communicate design concepts.

Digital Drawing for Designers: A Visual guide to AutoCAD 2011 2nd Edition DOUGLAS R. SEIDLER —Marymount University

With AutoCAD 2011, Autodesk enhanced the user interface and improved many drawing functions including annotative dimensions and text. Neither simplistic nor exhaustive, this revised edition of Digital Drawing for Designers teaches the latest version of AutoCAD by relating to what architects and interior designers understand best: the visual world. Beginning with the building blocks of drawing (lines, circles, and arcs), the book pro-gresses through architectural graphic standards allowing students to create drawings and effectively communicate their design ideas. Advanced features–such as annotative dimen-sions, annotative blocks, express tools, and linking drawings (XREFs)–are also covered. Instructions are illustrated using language and concepts from manual drafting, creating a smooth transition to the digital environment for all designers. New learners will appreci-ate the step-by-step lessons and visual illustrations. Experienced design professionals can easily access material to refresh their knowledge. Clear, concise, and above all visual, this is the AutoCAD guide written for interior designers and architects.

Electronic Workflow for Interior Designers and Architects ANDREW BRODY —Endicott College

Good design is smart design, and smart designers carefully control their workflow for maximum efficiency. Interior designers use multiple programs during the design process, but tend to learn each program in isolation. Electronic Workflow for Interior Designers and Ar-chitects is written with integration in mind: students and working professionals will learn how to combine traditional phases of design with the capabilities of selected software for efficient, clear project development. This book is organized to follow the design process from start to finish using a typical interior renovation project. Chapters cover everything from predesign and research to working drawings and construction documents. Presenta-tion renderings for schematic designs and techniques for creating physical and electronic portfolios are also discussed. Readers have the choice of working with a simple, small project or a complex, multilevel one, depending on skill level.

Architectural Model Building: Tools, Techniques, and Materials ROARK T. CONGDON

Advances in computer aided design have proven to be an invaluable tool for the archi-tectanddesigner,yetFrankGehrystillbeginshiscreativeprocessbymaking“simple”models out of modest materials. Drawings and video, while an essential part of the design process, are still not substitutes for the tactile sensation one receives from a scale model. Drawing on 20 years experience in art and architecture, the author has developed this book on model making as it applies to students and professionals of the built environment. More than 300 photographs illustrates a multitude of techniques and the use of a wide variety of materials, providing a solid foundation for students and professionals to create and enjoy three-dimensional model making for interior design, architecture, landscape architecture, furniture design, theatrical design, and retail merchandising.

Residential Design Studio ROBERT PHILIP GORDON —Columbia College Chicago

This text will address the process of how a professional interior designer goes about planning and designing a residence. Taking the approach of an interview with a potential homeowner, students will create a profile of the end user, so that decisions can be made on program and price. It will simulate for the residential design studio the same conditions that a professional designer faces including client requirements, program, budget, existing plan boundaries, and site location, providing a framework for the student to do their own thinking and their own design work.
