Topics include the design of effective spatial sequences, functional relationships among project parts, arrangement of furniture, planning effective circulation systems, making spaces accessible, and designing safe environments with efficient emergency egress systems.

Exercises throughout the book facilitate learning by encouraging students to apply ideas and concepts immediately after reading about them.
