“Well building hath three conditions: Firmness, Commodity and Delight.” Architekturbüro Nickl & Partner Architeken AG, München Sir Henry Wootton 1568 – 1639 quoting Vitruvius

Embody the principles of sustainability.

Commodity I Introduction Sustainability is becoming a central concern for us all. It is a concern that has grown out of wider recognition that rising populations and economic development are threatening a progressive degradation of the earths’ resources. The construction, maintenance and use of buildings impacts substantially on our environment and is currently contributing signicantly to irreversible changes in the world’s climate, atmosphere and ecosystem. To embrace the principles of sustainability a designer must select products which are both manufactured in an environmentally aware...

Architekturbüro Nickl & Partner Architeken AG, München Catch the aesthetic desires.

Spaces I Design Concepts A hospital visit or stay represents particular cir- cumstances in one's life that can be associated with a feeling of insecurity and anxiety. For a short time the hospital becomes the patient's world. It is important to have a calming atmosphere that is free from stress and promotes confidence, not only for patients, but also for visitors and for the people working there. A sense of wellbeing among patients boosts the success of medical treatments. The element of colour as part of in- terior design plays an important part in making all users feel at ease. Individual...

Architekturbüro Nickl & Partner Architeken AG, München Materials Every interior design employs different nishes and materials. Every material has its own feel and colour that inuence one another and create a particular effect. When combining very different materials and nishes, it is important to consider the contrasts so that matt and glossy, smooth and rough surfaces can be used to create a balanced interior design. If a room features a wide range of materials, an interesting mood can be created even with just a little colour. Special requirements as regards hygiene and wear must be taken...

Basics I Design Concepts The effect of colour Colours can create different moods and give areas with specic functions their own identity. In each case colours have to be considered in the context of the room, its function and light. It is therefore difcult to look at an individual colour in isolation – and certainly to assess its effect. The surface and nish also have a major inuence on the character of the colour, and of course our personal perception and sense of colour are very important factors. However, a basic principle is that the effect of a colour is greatly dependent on its...
