This module aims to provide an understanding of issues associated with the design of work and commercial spaces. Project-based studies require you to design successful working environments in response to user-centred criteria identified in a project brief. In developing formal spatial proposals you are asked to illustrate how working processes are successfully accommodated within a space and how the environment promotes enhanced user experience and interaction. As directed by tutors, case studies will be discussed in tutorials to support project-based studies.

Upon completion of this module you will be able to

LO1: Consider and describe the requirements of specific working environments in relation to a project brief.

LO2: Summarise research to inform a workable design response to a project brief.

LO3: Compare a wide range of approaches to the design of working environments.

LO4: Utilise a problem solving approach for design proposals appropriate and responsive to the specific requirements of a built space.

LO5: Describe the key elements of working patterns and human interaction within specific working environments.
