This research study created, piloted, and field tested a new instrument designed to collect perceptions toward an interior designer's impact on the health, safety, and welfare of the public. It also established an initial profile of perceptions within building industry professionals, identified the salient factors within those perceptions, and determined the level of these factors through a factor analysis. The Health, Safety, & Welfare in the Built Environment instrument was developed using a Table of Specifications based on the subject content that interior designers must be familiar with in regards to protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public according to the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA) and the interior design Body of Knowledge (BoK). It was administered to members of the CSI Gulf States Region. Seventy-nine respondents, out of a possible 206, accounting for 38.3%, voluntarily and anonymously completed the survey. A Factor Analysis on the gathered data determined that there were four underlying thematic sub-groups or factors. They were labeled Codes & Materials, Design Strategies, Mechanical, and Supervision. Female respondents participating in the study self-reported higher overall perceptions toward the factors Codes & Materials, Design Strategy and Mechanical revealing that they put more value in the need for interior designers to have higher understanding and skills toward protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public than males. Interior designers participating in the study scored higher than builders/contractors and engineers on their responses to the items in the Design Strategy factor revealing that interior designers place more value in understanding and demonstrating skills related to anthropometrics, color psychology, the impact of color, lighting and finishes on a person's vision, injury prevention and means of egress during fire than builders/contractors or engineers perceive to be necessary. Architects participating in this study scored higher than interior designers on the factor Supervision revealing that architects perceive a higher need for interior designers to be supervised by an architect than interior designers perceive to be needed.

"As the profession of interior design continues to advance through its achievement of legislation in many U.S. jurisdictions, the boundary between architecture and interior design has been increasingly blurred. In states where interior design practice acts have been legislated, qualified practitioners may independently submit nonstructural interior drawings for building permits - a role previously restricted to registered architects and engineers. As such, the term interior architecture has become common nomenclature for the design of interiors projects, and while it is debatably an accurate description, its use by interior designers has led to controversy between the architecture and interior design professions due to the legally protected status of the title "architect." Further fueling the controversy between these disciplines, the trend for some U.S. colleges and universities to rename interior design programs to interior architecture has been met with opposition on both sides due to the infringement on the term architecture and the resulting confusion between these legally distinct professions. Proponents for interior architectural education, however, argue that a gap exists between architecture and interior design and that the unique principles and theories of interior architecture provide the necessary link. As the term interior architecture is increasingly used to describe the gray area that exists between these professions, there remains a lack of clarity as to what interior architecture is and who is qualified and legally able to practice it. This study explores the historical context of the term interior architecture, its relationship to both architecture and interior design, and how it is currently perceived by practitioners, educators, and students of both disciplines. By seeking the opinions of individuals most impacted by the term, this study provides insight on the historical, present, and potential future applications of the term interior architecture within the U.S. architecture and design community." -- Introduction.

The world and the people living in it are increasingly and rapidly being affected by environmental and technological changes. It is imperative that the design profession addresses these developments with a new way of thinking. This book points the way for the design of interiors in this newly complex world and will be indispensable for students, practitioners and theoreticians. The book is divided into four chapters that explore aspects of the human experience of the interior, from man’s earliest search for shelter to an outline of past and current thinking on design, psychology and well-being. An epilogue looks at such future concerns as population growth and sustainability and suggests how the design profession can confront these challenges. Rethinking Design and Interiors is a fascinating exploration of how art and science can come together for the benefit of those who inhabit the built environment.

In Looking Beyond the Structure, architect Dan Bucsescu and philosopher Michael Eng record their conversations about the relationship of the built environment and other forms of design to the culture in which they are created. The authors exchange their interpretations of selected readings about design theory and invite the reader to join in the discussion. Questions following each chapter's reading stimulate critical thinking about the philosophies and theories of design, and additional assignments encourage students to express their critical thinking skills visually.

This well-illustrated 'think piece' provides a much needed and topical philosophical introduction to the place of environmental design in architecture. The Environments of Architecture sets out a range of considerations necessary to produce appropriate internal environments in the context of a wider discussion on the effect of building decisions on the broader environment. The authors, from architecture and engineering, academia and practice, provide a rounded and well-balanced introduction to this important topic. Starting from a belief that the built environment can contribute more positively to the planet and the pleasure of places as well as answering the practical demands of comfort, they cover site planning, form, materials, construction and operation as well as looking at design on a city level. Presenting a thoughtful and stimulating approach to the built environment, this book forms an excellent guide for practitioners, students and academics concerned with our built environment.

This book argues that interior architects have a responsibility to practice their profession in collaborative ways that address the needs of communities and of to be the agents of social justice and cultural heritage. The book is divided into three sections, based on three pivotal themes — community engagement, social justice and cultural heritage. Each section has chapters that put forward the principles of these themes, leading into a variety of fascinating case studies that illustrate how socially sustainable design is implemented in diverse communities across the world. The second section includes four concise case studies of community housing issues, including remote-area indigenous housing and housing for the homeless. The third section offers two extensively researched essays on design and cultural heritage — a case study of the development of a redundant industrial site and a historical study of gendered domestic interiors. The book appeals to a wider audience than the design community alone and challenges mainstream interior design/interior architecture practitioners nationally and internationally to take a leading role in the field of socially responsible design. The issues raised by the authors are relevant for individuals, communities, government and non-government organisations, professionals and students. “In the twenty-first century we seem to have entered into a new world of knowledge discovery, where many of the most exciting insights come not from the authority of a traditional discipline, but from the dialogue that happens at the hubs and intersections of thought — the arenas where different disciplines and approaches, different schools and habits of thinking, come together to collaborate and contend. This collection is a good example of this, and I hope the book will be widely read and its lessons learned and applied.” Tim Costello, Officer of the Order of Australia, Chief Executive, World Vision Australia.
