|
DELIVERABLES
|
Documents and presentation materials that must be prepared to explain the design concepts and eventually allow the project to be built and installed
|
|
PROGRAMMING PHASE
|
The information-gathering portion of an interior design project; the designer seeks as much information as possible on such things as client expectations, functional needs, aesthetics, and factors concerning the interior space itself.
|
|
SCHEMATIC DESIGN PHASE
|
Involves the execution of preliminary design decisions through the development of written design concepts, bubble diagrams, adjacency matrices, block plans, preliminary floor plans and any appropriate design sketches
|
|
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PHASE
|
Involves the preparation of all final furniture plans; presentation graphics, such as perspectives or axonometric drawings; sample boards, if they are to be used; and specification for all the FFandE
|
|
CONTRACT DOCUMENTS PHASE
|
Involves the final preparation of all construction or working drawings (which in part create the contract documents and are sometimes referred to as CDs), schedules, and specification that are required to build and install the design project.
|
|
CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION PHASE
|
The portion of the project that involves the competitive bid process or the placing of orders for all the furniture and equipment, as well as the actual construction and installation work.
|
|
WALK-THROUGH; PUNCH LIST
|
A final site inspection where the designer, with the client, determines if there are any omissions or damages; a form on which notations are made
|
|
TRANSMITTAL LETTER
|

MILESTONE CHARTS
|
A method of scheduling a project, in which the designer outlines the activities required for the project and then establishes target dates for their completion; easiest.
|
|
BAR CHARTS
|
Consist of a description of tasks required in the left=hand side and horizontal bars on the right-hand side, showing the time in days, weeks, or months that is required to complete the task. Disadvantage: it does not necessarily show how one activity affects another activity or which is the most important one.
|
|
CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM)
|
Scheduling method that may be called for if the design project is so complex that the interrelationships of the required tasks are critical; this method is dependent upon the interrelationships of activities and the detailed tasks of each activities.
|
|
PROJECT BUDGETING METHODS
|
1 Developing quality ranges
2 Typicals 3 Square-foot factor 4 Estimate using cost and labor |
|
80/20 RULE
|
Maintains that when activities are arranged in order of importance, 80% of a person's time will be spent performing 20% of the activities.
|
|
PROJECT FILES (OR JOB BOOKS)
|
File folders or notebooks in which the designer keeps all the pertinent data and paperwork related to the work in progress; this serves as a complete record of all the designer's efforts to organize a project and can be used to create the installation manual. It can be used to answer a question on a project in process, or to help a client out on an older project.
|
|

|
A method of analyzing and specifying products and design solutions based on cost-effectiveness
