Experiential Design Schemas by Mark Dekay
Experiential Design Schemas presents a new theoretical and practical framework for designing architectural experiences developed by two seasoned researchers, an architect, and a building scientist. It delivers 45 experiential design schemas as generative design resources in a novel, multi-scalar networked language. Each schema is published as a modular four-page spread that explains the phenomena and potential feeling state, along with compelling precedents, supporting evidence and design guidelines. Their purpose is to help designers expand the delight, joy, serenity, and nature connections possible in buildings. The schema-based design guidance enables architects to choreograph positive experiences of dynamic and variable environmental conditions that connect people to Nature’s rhythms.Mark DeKay, AIA, architect and a full professor of architecture specializing in sustainable design theory, research, and design tools. He is author of Integral Sustainable Design: transformative perspectives and co-author of Sun, Wind + Light: architectural design strategies. Gail Brager, PhD, and is a distinguished professor of architecture in the Building Science, Technology + Sustainability program at the University of California, Berkeley, and is the associate director of the Center for the Built Environment, an Industry/University collaborative research center.
