Achieving coordination of the building interior and furnishings, meeting human ergonomic and psychological needs, and providing optimum aesthetic effect are identifiable and attainable goals for every interior design project. People's reactions to interior environments is critical to the success of every facility type. These reactions were first identified in healthcare facilities, where color, texture, lighting, furnishings, and finishes all contribute to creating an environment which supports patient recovery and well- being. Training, maintenance, laboratories, logistic support, medical, administrative, residential, morale, welfare and recreation facilities all have unique functional and aesthetic requirements. When these requirements are satisfied, workers, residents, and customers react positively, take pride in their contributions and in the facility, and perform to their maximum potential. Why should you insist on comprehensive interior design in your facilities?  To improve the morale and increase the productivity of the people in your facility.  To use your space and financial resources in the most cost effective manner.  To assure the health, safety and welfare of facility occupants.  To project a professional image of your organization.  To provide appropriate and maintainable building materials, finishes, furniture, and furnishings. ii Guide to Excellent Interiors Atrium, Minot AFB Office, Maxwell AFB Conceptual Plan Working Drawings Program Bubble Diagram Tele-Conferencing Wright-Patterson AFB Team Roles and the Design Process To create high quality interior environments requires that the user, installation maintenance staff, commands, programmers, designers, engineers, construction workers, and suppliers work together toward clearly defined statements of design excellence.   Programming is the first step in this process. Programming involves defining the project requirements and providing the financial resources to support them. This is where the user first forms a concept of what is needed.   At concept development designers become fully involved in translating the user's operational and maintenance concepts into a built form. Designers work with the user to understand the reasons behind requirements and to give them form in terms of size, shape, and space layout.   As the design is developed into contract documents and procurement information, the designer works with the user to specify requirements for construction, furniture, finishes, and furnishings. The documents created are the master plan for bringing the project to reality. They give the building, its interior spaces, furniture, and furnishings a coordinated form and aesthetic expression. iii Guide to Excellent Interiors Library, Robins AFB Fitness Center, Redstone Arsenal Auditorium, USMA Westpoint Child Development Center Wright-Patterson AFB  Execution involves guiding the work of those who construct the building and providing the furniture and furnishings. Attention to detail during building construc- tion, as well as during procurement and installation of furnishings, is critical to the achievement of excellence. Creating stimulating, comfortable, and appropriate environments for living and working is an achievable goal when the user and the design and construction team work together as partners. Ensuring Excellence The photographs in this guide represent the successful partnership between users, installation managers, designers, construction workers, and suppliers to bring about excellence in interior design. The photographs represent a broad range of facility types, locations, and design, construction, and furnishing techniques. In every case, an involved user initially defined the concept in terms of functional requirements and financial resources and demanded excellence pivotal to the success of these projects. Proper programming ensures the allocation of adequate military construction funds for building, and adequate maintenance funds to provide for furniture and furnishings. Superior programming results from having a clear vision of what the project is to be. Designers can be of assistance in defining the needs but the vision starts with the user. Superior programming enables excellence in design and construction. Excellence in design and construction results in facilities which optimize functional and aesthetic requirements and enable people to perform to their maximum potential. iv Guide to Excellent Interiors Clinic Waiting, Minot AFB Auditorium, Gunter AFB Snack Shop, Gunter AFB Atrium, Ft.
