Behavioral architecture

"Based on a new concept in architecture, this volume shows how to use the findings of behavioral psychology to create more meaningful architectural designs. It is one of the first synthesis by a practicing architect of what has been learned about the interaction of architecture and human behavior. In the process the author looks at old problems in new ways, adding a new dimension to present architectural practices ... Although its approach to architecture is unique, the book is primarily a practical work. Its main points are solidly supported by a detailed behavioral design process model--a step-by-step procedure for using behavior in contemporary design"--Jacket.
