A residence is not just a place to eat and sleep--it is a headquarters and home. And it is the residential designer who must understand the uses to which the home will be put. Written with the designer's role in mind, Residential Planning and Design bridges the gap between drafting books and decorator texts to provide a comprehensive guide for residential planning from conception through construction. Information on housing traditions and trends (both American and international), materials and construction techniques, and the needs of individuals, families, and communities all help inform intelligent design decisions, from insulation to the placement of light switches. Particular attention is given to the possibilities for green design and environmentally friendly technologies. Both practical and progressive, prepares designers for successful professional relationships with the clients who hire them--and with the architects, engineers, and contractors they work with.
