ISBN: 9781584711025
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
"Educational Environments No. 3 brings welcome news at a critical time for America's educational community - now preparing students for an increasingly uncertain and volatile world - by providing a thoughtful look at many of the newest and most inspired educational facilities for students from K-12 to university and beyond, as designed by some of the nation's leading architects and interior designers. The range of facilities illustrated in this volume's meticulously reproduced, four-color pages reflects the broad scope of today's educational activities. The elementary schools, high schools, classroom buildings, laboratories, dormitories, student centers, gymnasiums, libraries, community centers, museums, performing arts centers, dining halls, visitors centers and other facilities depicted in Educational Environments No. 3 will give educators, supporters of education, concerned citizens and their architects and interior designers, an excellent opportunity to review their own options for planning, designing and building state-of-the-art facilities." "To help readers make frequent, easy use of its resources Educational Environments No. 3 is organized alphabetically by design firm, with each project indexed by educational institution and location. Educators, their supporters and advocates, as well as architects and interior designers serving the educational world, will be able to measure their own projects and project requirements against the recent achievements presented here as they consider how to make education more accessible and effective in their communities."--Jacket.

Safe Passage
Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309170311
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
Safe Passage: Astronaut Care for Exploration Missions sets forth a vision for space medicine as it applies to deep space voyage. As space missions increase in duration from months to years and extend well beyond Earth's orbit, so will the attendant risks of working in these extreme and isolated environmental conditions. Hazards to astronaut health range from greater radiation exposure and loss of bone and muscle density to intensified psychological stress from living with others in a confined space. Going beyond the body of biomedical research, the report examines existing space medicine clinical and behavioral research and health care data and the policies attendant to them. It describes why not enough is known today about the dangers of prolonged travel to enable humans to venture into deep space in a safe and sane manner. The report makes a number of recommendations concerning NASA's structure for clinical and behavioral research, on the need for a comprehensive astronaut health care system and on an approach to communicating health and safety risks to astronauts, their families, and the public.

Designing Public Spaces in Hospitals
Author: Nicoletta Setola
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317514203
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Designing Public Spaces in Hospitals illustrates that in addition to their aesthetic function, public spaces in hospitals play a fundamental role concerning people’s satisfaction and experience of health care. The book highlights how spatial properties, such as accessibility, visibility, proximity, and intelligibility affect people’s behavior and interactions in hospital public spaces. Based on the authors’ research, the book includes detailed analysis of three hospitals and criteria that can support the design in circulation areas, arrival and entrance, first point of welcome, reception, and the interface between city and hospital. Illustrated with 150 black and white images.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
The architecture and design sector, which guides us in the process of understanding and giving meaning to this universe of which we are a part, is constantly nourished by science, culture and art. It embodies more sustainable, functional and aesthetic concerns by establishing a balance with the natural and built environment. Since every decision made in architecture, design and planning directly affects living life, these disciplines are of vital importance. This puts great responsibilities on designers. In this context, there are 3 studies in this book, which produces products in the field of architecture, planning and design. These book chapters’s names are ‘The Experience of Emulating Nature In Landscape Design’, ‘Change and Development of Healthcare Facilities During the Historical Process’ and ‘Sustainable Competition in the Global Jewelry Industry: An Analysis of Evolving Design Approaches’.

Digital Transformation
Author: Reimund Neugebauer
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3662581345
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
With the exception of written letters and personal conversations, digital technology forms the basis of nearly every means of communication and information that we use today. It is also used to control the essential elements of economic, scientific, and public and private life: security, production, mobility, media, and healthcare. Without exaggerating it is possible to say that digital technology has become one of the foundations of our technologically oriented civilization. The benefits of modern data technology are so impressive and the potential for future applications so enormous that we cannot fail to promote its development if we are to retain our leading role in the competitive international marketplace. In this process, security plays a vital role in each of the areas of application of digital technology — the more technological sectors are entrusted to data systems technology, the more important their reliability becomes to us. Developing digital systems further while simultaneously ensuring that they always act and respond in the best interests of people is a central goal of the technological research and development propagated and conducted by Fraunhofer.

The Covert Life of Hospital Architecture
Author: Julie Zook
Publisher: UCL Press
ISBN: 1800080883
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
The Covert Life of Hospital Architecture addresses hospital architecture as a set of interlocked, overlapping spatial and social conditions. It identifies ways that planned-for and latent functions of hospital spaces work jointly to produce desired outcomes such as greater patient safety, increased scope for care provider communication and more intelligible corridors. By advancing space syntax theory and methods, the volume brings together emerging research on hospital environments. Opening with a description of hospital architecture that emphasizes everyday relations, the sequence of chapters takes an unusually comprehensive view that pairs spaces and occupants in hospitals: the patient room and its intervisibility with adjacent spaces, care teams and on-ward support for their work and the intelligibility of public circulation spaces for visitors. The final chapter moves outside the hospital to describe the current healthcare crisis of the global pandemic as it reveals how healthcare institutions must evolve to be adaptable in entirely new ways. Reflective essays by practicing designers follow each chapter, bringing perspectives from professional practice into the discussion. The Covert Life of Hospital Architecture makes the case that latent dimensions of space as experienced have a surprisingly strong link to measurable outcomes, providing new insights into how to better design hospitals through principles that have been tested empirically. It will become a reference for healthcare planners, designers, architects and administrators, as well as for readers from sociology, psychology and other areas of the social sciences.
