Download the Book (PDF): Interior Design Fundamentals addresses the design of built human environments: the organisation of enclosed space to support human activity, the dimensioning of that space against the measurable realities of the human body, the selection of the materials and systems that give it physical substance, and the documentation through which a design intention becomes a constructed reality. The module is organised as a single continuous argument in twelve par

It assumes that you know what a randomised trial is, that you have encountered confidence intervals and hazard ratios, and that you have at some point been frustrated by a paper whose methods you could not reconstruct. It does not set


Fundamentals of Holistic Psychology and Well-being
