　　Interior design helps to shape all aspects of our lives and

has now come of age both intellectually and professionally. This

text sets out to change and clarify the perceptions and

misconceptions about contemporary interior design by examining some

of the key issues that define what it is, how it is different from

architecture, what specific skills it requires and what design

problems it solves. The book also aspires to provide new creative

possibilities which can help not only to expand and distinguish the

discipline but also elevate its stature and esteem. Provocatively

written by one of the foremost educators and practitioners in the

field, this book will be essential for all interior design students

and teachers, as well as appealing to practitioners.

书籍介绍

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 address 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.
