Developing a proposal Include a rationale for the project. Outline benefits. Improve odds for funding and approval. Identify users. Suggest planning group. Identify the client(s).

The architectural program Provides scope and parameters Lists functional requirements States the problem, not the solution Quantifies rather than qualifies

Benefits of an interior architect Asks questions client may not think of Coordinates the construction schedule Supervises construction Estimates cost with accuracy Is familiar with sources for equipment and
materials Can develop specifications for equipment and
materials

Space inventory Helps identify options and possibilities Lists features, such as square footage,
geometry, structural and spatial intrusions, lighting, ceiling heights, level of HVAC, condition of surfaces

Essential components of the smart classroom Computer work station for
each student Proctor station for instructor Digital projector VCR, DVD player, stereo
receiver & speakers Projection screen Storage for supplies Multi-media cart Printer and printer stand White board

First spatial prototype Fixed seating Must include adequate
space between rows May impede
communication between students and instructor if large monitors are selected
![Page 8: Who Put that Column into the Middle of the Room? Designing Functional, Flexible, and Forgiving Spaces for Library Instruction Paul Glassman Hofstra University](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d485503460f94a234c6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Second spatial prototype Flexible or
clustered seating Allows students to
work in smaller groups Facilitates discussion May be achieved
through trapezoidal tables on wheels

Third spatial prototype Stadium seating Provides better sight
lines Requires adequate
space between rows Needs work station at
entry level for ADA compliance

Anthropomorphic data Developed by
industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss
Useful for mock-ups of space between rows
![Page 11: Who Put that Column into the Middle of the Room? Designing Functional, Flexible, and Forgiving Spaces for Library Instruction Paul Glassman Hofstra University](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d485503460f94a234c6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
White boards Do not locate behind
projection screen. Interactivity is
provided by SMART Technologies.
Select between SMART Board and Sympodium.

Lectern Consider location
carefully. Position to side so as
not to block screen. Position in center to
achieve equidistance. Be cautious of catalog
options.

Classroom management software Controls hands-on
experience Broadcasts information
to individuals or entire class
Serves as disciplinary tool

Lighting Ambient Task Reflected ceiling plan Placement of light
switches Rheostatic controls Separate controls for
ambient and task lighting

Power Install outlets near each
station. Customized furnishings
often include outlets. Power outlets and data
jacks are usually integral.
Remember to provide power for the printer.

Heating, ventilating & air conditioning (HVAC) Most spaces were
designed for lower heat loads.
Computer equipment more than doubles the heat load.
A dedicated thermostat is a welcome feature.
