The bestselling guide to interior design, updated with new code and
technology Interior Design Illustrated is the definitive guide to
design for interior spaces. Richly illustrated in author Francis
Ching's signature style, this book introduces complex design
concepts in a visually stunning format; from defining the space and
using the elements of design, to planning building systems and
incorporating sustainable materials, this volume embodies the idea
that beauty and function are not separate entities, but two parts
of a whole. This new fourth edition has been updated to reflect the
latest building codes and design practices, with discussion of new
materials related to acoustics, lighting, and sustainable
furnishings. Renewed attention to sustainability includes new
information on energy conservation, design for longevity and
adaptive reuse of existing buildings, as well as an updated
discussion on LED lighting, workplace design, use of color, and
computer modeling software to provide a well-rounded view of how
interior design firms are working today. This classic text brings
the elements and principles of design to life, giving students the
practical skills they need to transition from idea to concept.
Understand the latest building codes and how to integrate them into
your design Explore new advances in materials, lighting, and
wireless technology Design from a perspective of sustainability,
longevity, and energy efficiency Delve into BIM, including software
for modeling lighting, acoustics, and more Interior designers work
at the intersection of aesthetics, functionality, regulations,

formula for getting it right, only an eye trained by experience,
based on a mastery of design fundamentals. Interior Design
Illustrated begins laying that foundation, guided by a leading
global authority in the field.
