Furnishing Zoning: Spaces, Materials, Fit-Out

By Eva Maria Herrmann, Tobias Katz, Marcus Kaiser, et al.

Designing and detailing interiors

What is the process of
forming rooms, which elements are used and how are room-shaping
components defined? The fourth volume in the SCALE series, "Furnishing
Zoning", deals with the relationships between building typology and
building structure, and between spatial composition and interior design.
The relationship between the briefing and the catalogue of
requirements, and between shell construction and fit-out, is elucidated.
Connections at walls, ceilings and floors are explained in detail and
illustrated with case studies of selected projects. In addition, the
authors demonstrate how a well-designed sequence of spaces can create
added value by means, for example, of the choice of materials and the
lighting scheme, or adaptability to accommodate new functions.
Following
the introductory chapter on the subject of space, the volume is divided
into chapters on floors, walls, ceilings, and furniture and fixtures.
"Furnishing Zoning" examines the subject from different professional
angles and thereby provides valuable support for practical interior
design.
