    Description

    We live in a world of limited resources, and the AEC industry not only has a large impact on the use of those resources, but also the overall health of our planet. As designers, it is important to consider the impact of the project not only on the environment, but also on the health of its occupants.
     
    In this course, we’ll discuss how to better identify and reduce a design’s carbon footprint using Building Information Modeling (BIM). Specifying high-quality, sustainable materials for interiors can not only lead to longer product life cycles and better energy management, but also benefit the overall health of the occupant by limiting the use of toxic substances and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). We’ll demonstrate how BIM gives the designer more control over a building’s level of sustainability – such as generating embodied carbon calculations – and gives the designer more opportunities to enhance the aesthetics and occupant comfort by using a systems approach.

    Description

    As human lifespans extend, the cost of living continues to rise, and lifestyles become increasingly diverse, there is increased pressure on maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle inside the home. This presents a compelling opportunity to proactively integrate universal design principles into everyday living, starting with the primary place of residence for people who are growing older

    Designers can employ adaptable accessibility features in the early stages of home development and construction to create barrier-free living environments that are capable of accommodating changing needs over time. In this intermediate Part 2 course, we will delve into case studies featuring individuals with wide-ranging needs and living situations. We will illustrate the significant benefits of adaptive design and planning techniques, building on the foundation of the baseline and universal design personas introduced in Part 1. Additional case studies will demonstrate how the appropriate integration of universal design principles in advance can help to ease lifestyle transitions, not only for people living in group settings, but also for those coping with sudden injuries and significant physical or mental changes. 

    Subject matter expertise provided by the ASID Universal Design Committee (formerly known as the Committee on Adaptive Living).


    What You Will Learn
    • Emphasize adaptive living as a fundamental aspect of residential design. 
    • Assess architectural plans to identify necessary design adjustments for adaptations. 
    • Cultivate skills and strategies for universal design. 
    • Perform task and activity analyses to determine adaptation requirements for design plans.

    Description

    The rise in synthetic products coupled with the focus on airtight buildings to conserve energy has led to a rise in volatile organic compounds (VOCs), semi volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), particulate matter (PM) and chemical related indoor air quality (IAQ) issues, resulting in building-related illness, litigation and leasing problems. Additionally, an increase in weather-related disasters, warmer temperatures and changes in precipitation have increased ground ozone, mold and pathogens. Evolving environmental conditions are impacting building materials and increasing the risks to human health. This presentation seeks to raise greater awareness so that interior designers can drive market transformation collectively towards healthier spaces. Interior designers can be part of the solution by reducing indoor pollution, achieving better building resiliency, and proactively incorporating design measures that (1) evaluate potential impacts from extreme weather events and (2) prioritize the selection of materials, finishes and furnishings that minimize risks to human health.
