Description
Written from the viewpoint of the working designer, Interior Design Materials and Specifications, Fifth Edition, describes each material’s characteristics and shows students how to evaluate, select, and specify materials, while considering code compliance, building standards, human needs, and bidding processes. Students will learn how to communicate with suppliers and vendors to achieve the results they envision and how to avoid some of the pitfalls common to material selection and specification.
Through case studies based on real-life situations, Interior Design Materials and Specifications reflects the most recent material technologies and contemporary awareness on industry movements.
