Features: This book can serve as a textbook for architecture at universities and also be used as a reference for real estate developers and architectural designers when designing residential spaces. It systematically explains the design of barrier-free residential areas and dwellings, detailing how to design functional spaces in homes using contemporary ergonomic research findings and the latest shapes, sizes, and performance characteristics of family comfort facilities. It simplifies complex residential space design into basic geometric problems, accompanied by numerous illustrations, photos, and detailed provisions, providing a clear and useful guide for the design and construction of barrier-free residential areas and dwellings. However, as barrier-free design (in developed countries) is gradually evolving into universal design, the design techniques for functional spaces of residential areas and dwellings introduced in this book can also be applied to the design of general residential areas and dwellings.
