Space–definition; elements of interior spaces, Interior space–spatial qualities: form, scale, outlook; structuring space with interior design elements; spatial form; spatial dimension – square, rectangle, curve linear spaces; height of space; spatial transitions – openings within wall planes, doorways, windows, stairways; horizontal and vertical circulation UNIT 2 DESIGN VOCABULARY & PRINCIPLES 9 Hrs. Principles of perception, Form – point, line, volume, shape, texture and color – in relation to light, pattern, Ratio; proportions – golden section; relationships; scale; Balance – symmetrical, radial, occult; harmony; unity; variety; rhythm; emphasis, Synthesis of these elements evolves understanding of interior space, , static and dynamic aspects of spaces. UNIT 3 ANTHROPOMETRICS 6 Hrs. Definition, body link system, static and dynamic anthropometry, theory of standard dimension based on human figures for activities, functions, circulation, furniture design, spatial requirements etc, relationship between human activities and anthropometrics, introduction to ergonomics, Design of Furniture for Living, Dining, Kitchen, Office etc. UNIT 4 DESIGN PROCESS 7 Hrs. Design process–Design criteria–function and purpose, utility and economy, form and style; human factors-human dimensions, distance zones, activity relationships, function, aesthetics values, ways to incorporate exuberance in interiors. Max. 30 Hours COURSE OUTCOMES On completion of the course the student will be able to CO1: Recognize the two dimensional aspects of spatial elements and their applications in interior spaces. CO2: Develop an understanding of design vocabulary and thereby perceive the visual environment. CO3: Interpret the principles of design using spatial elements and compositions in interior space. CO4: Comprehend the relationship between form, dimensions of interior space and human dimensions and also between human factors and activity relationships. CO5: Understand the need and relationships between anthropometric requirements and various functions of a space. CO6: Develop the ability to analyse the design problem, synthesize the response and critically evaluate the design thereby define the cyclic design process. TEXT / REFERENCE BOOKS 1. Francis. D. K.
