  17. Traffic Patterns or Circulation Path • The route that people follow as they move from one place to another. • Minor Traffic Paths should allow 1.5-4 feet • Major Traffic Paths should allow 4-6 feet • Types – Family, Work & Service, Guest

  18. Circulation • Avoid going through middle of rooms • Don’t interfere with good furniture arrangement nor interrupt activities • Don’t interfere with private zone • Don’t go through kitchen work area • Easy access from kitchen to rest of house • Direct access from entrance to clean-up area • Short paths to conserve human energy

  19. Good Family Circulation • Bathrooms should be close to bedrooms. • Indoor living next to outdoor living area’s • Other related rooms close to each other. • High use routes should be short and simple.

  20. Guest Circulation • Entry, living, dining, powder room or ½ bath not in private area’s of the home, porches, patios, entertainment rooms. • Ask Yourself: • How to guests travel to the living room when you are entertaining? • Do they have to go through private areas of your home? • How do they get to the powder room? • Is the kitchen handy for serving food and drinks to your guests when you are entertaining? http://www.home-decorating-room-by-room.com/trafficpatterns.html

  23. Ask yourself these Questions • Can the cook prepare a meal without worrying about constantly walking into someone going by? • If people can eat in their rooms or living areas, can they get there without leaving a trail through the entire house? • If you spend a lot of time grilling outside on the patio, is it convenient to the inside food prep area? • Do you have to walk through to the other end of the house to reach the outdoor grill? • Can you bring the groceries right in from the outside without having to go through the living room?

  24. How to Draw Traffic Patterns Use arrows to indicate where people would walk in the space

  25. Draw the traffic pattern on the floor plan on your note taking guide

  26. Open Space Planning • Where living, dining & kitchen areas are all combined in one large area with no walls separating them • Advantages: -reduced construction costs -reduced time for cleaning & upkeep -perception of larger spaces -increase of space available -flexibility -more effective transmission of air

  27. Closed Floor Plans • Have separate rooms • Walls and door separate the space • Traditional

  28. Scale • Drawing to scale means that each square on a graph paper represents a given number of feet, inches, or centimeters. • Most residential plans are drawn in ¼” =1ft • To create a scale drawing you must measure the room and furnishings.

  29. 7 things you should measure when creating a floor plan • Length & Width of Room Location of : • Doors • Windows (including mouldings) 4. Closets 5. Fireplaces 6. Electrical Supply 7. Radiators

Orientation • The way a housing unit is situated on the lot • Affects space plan’s efficiency & arrangement • East-west orientation is best • Passive solar heating in winter + snow on driveway melts quicker • Position windows to take advantage of cross breezes • Landscaping to buffer winter winds & provide shade in summer

  32. Project • Indicate zones—public, work & private Does it meet the 3 zoning principles? • Identify buffers Are they adequate for visual & acoustical privacy, & dividing zones? • Draw arrows for major circulation routes Do they meet recommendations? • Is it an open floor plan? (show it on plan) • Anything you especially like or dislike?
