  • WINDOWS and DOORS Windows and Doors Are Necessary Features of All Residential Structures and Should Be Planned Carefully to Insu
    WINDOWS AND DOORS Windows and doors are necessary features of all residential structures and should be planned carefully to insure maximum contribution to the overall design and function of a structure. Windows and doors perform several functions in a residential structure, such as: shield an opening from the elements, add decoration, emphasize the overall design, provide light and ventilation, and expand visibility. DOORS Each door identified on the foundation plan and floor plan should appear on a door schedule. Specifications vary amongst manufacturer, so it is important to have exact information for the schedule. Interior Doors Interior door types include; flush, panel, bi-fold, sliding, pocket, double-action, accordion, Dutch, and French. Flush Doors • Smooth on both sides, usually made of wood and are hollow on the inside with a wood frame around the perimeter • Standard size is 1-3/8” thick, 6’8” high and range from 2’ – 3’ wide Panel Doors Most Common Door • Panel doors have a heavy frame around the outside and generally have cross members that form small panels • The vertical members are called stiles • The horizontal pieces are called rails Bi-Fold Doors • A bi-fold door is made of two parts that together form the door • Popular as closet doors and are seldom used for other applications • Installed in pairs with each door being the same width, which ranges from 1’ – 2’ • Standard height 6’8” – 8’ • Thickness of 1-1/8” for wood doors and 1” for metal Sliding Doors • Sliding or bi-pass doors are popular where there are large openings

  • Windows to the World - Doors to Space - a Reflection on the Psychology and Anthropology of Space Architecture
    Space: Science, Technology and the Arts (7th Workshop on Space and the Arts) 18-21 May 2004, ESA/ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands Windows to the world - Doors to Space - a reflection on the psychology and anthropology of space architecture. Andreas Vogler, Architect(1), Jesper Jørgensen, Psychologist(2) (1)Architecture and Vision / SpaceArch Hohenstaufenstrasse 10, D-80801 MUNICH GERMANY [email protected], [email protected] (2) SpaceArch c/o Kristian von Bengtson Prinsessegade 7A, st.tv DK - 1422 Copenhagen K, Denmark [email protected] ABSTRACT Living in a confined environment as a space habitat is a strain on normal human life. Astronauts have to adapt to an environment characterized by restricted sensory stimulation and the lack of “key points” in normal human life: seasons, weather change, smell of nature, visual, audible and other normal sensory inputs which give us a fixation in time and place. Living in a confined environment with minimal external stimuli available, gives a strong pressure on group and individuals, leading to commonly experienced symptoms: tendency to depression, irritability and social tensions. It is known, that perception adapts to the environment. A person living in an environment with restricted sensory stimulation will adapt to this situation by giving more unconscious and conscious attention to the present sensory stimuli. Newest neurobiological research (neuroaestetics) shows that visual representations (like Art) have a remarkable impact in the brain, giving knowledge that these representations both function as usual information and as information on a higher symbolic level (Zeki). Therefore designing a space habitat must take into consideration the importance of design, not only in its functional role, but also as a combination of functionality, mental representation and its symbolic meaning, seen as a function of its anthropological meaning.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has cited that Americans spend an average of 90 percent of their time indoors. As human beings can often spend a majority of the hours in the day at their workplace, more so than their home, it is important to understand the effects of the built environment on the American office employee.

    Nancy Drew: Location, Location, Location by Pam Horack Page 15 Nancy’s World (to me) In real estate, the mantra is “Location, Location, Location”. As in a story, the right setting can be an effective plot device and can be used to evoke specific feelings. The Nancy Drew books often used a location to create the backdrop for the mysterious and adventurous. As a child, I was able to use my grandparents’ home as a true reference for many of the Nancy Drew settings, thus bringing the stories to life and turning me into Nancy Drew Green’s Folly, located in Halifax County, Virginia, was home to my maternal grandparents. As my mother was raised there, our family visited frequently. The estate has served many functions through the years: county courthouse, a racetrack, a farm, and currently an 18-hole golf course, which was originally developed by my grandfather, John G. Patterson, Jr. As a child with a vivid imagination, my senses were aroused by mysterious features of the old home. This was the world of my childhood and it made a natural location for many of my adventures with Nancy Drew. As many of the Nancy Drew stories involved large old estates, my mind easily substituted the real world for the fictitious. There seemed to be too many coincidences and similarities for it to be otherwise. I found my imagination using Green’s Folly as the backdrop for the following stories: 1. The Hidden Staircase 2. The Mystery at Lilac Inn 3. The Sign of the Twisted Candles 4.

    Converting Attics, Basements and Garages to Living Space 9 Livable space or accessory dwelling unit This publication provides information for homeowners who want to increase livable space in their single family homes by converting an attic, basement or garage or legalize existing space that was converted without permits. It is important to know that most existing basements, attics and garages were built to be used for storage rather than living space; therefore, each conversion project is unique. The conditions of your site and dwelling will determine the scope and feasibility of the project. This brochure includes alternative standards for existing conditions as approved by the Building Official and available in the Habitable Space Standards for Existing Elements Code Guide located at www.portlandoregon.gov/BDS/article/68635. Requirements for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are different from simply converting a space to additional living space. For information on adding ADUs or in-law quarters to your home, go to www.portlandoregon.gov/bds/36676.
