Good for commecial interior designers

The most helpful aspects of this book is it's solutions for designing for disabled people in the workplace. Since the ADA was established in 1992, accomodating the needs of the disabled is now a requirement for all newly designed spaces. This book helps interior designers not only accomodate these needs, but tries to provide ideas for solving the design problem creatively. The end result is an aesthetically pleasing work environment rather than one where ADA accessibility has been treated as an afterthought.
