Wayfinding, consumption, and air terminal design / by Hubregtse, Menno,author.(CARDINAL)831765;

"This book investigates how international air terminals organize passenger movement and generate spending. It offers a new understanding of how their architecture and artworks operate visually to guide people through the space and affect their behaviour. Menno Hubregtse's research draws upon numerous airport visits and interviews with architects and planners as well as documents and articles that address these terminals' development, construction, and renovations. The book establishes the main concerns of architects with respect to wayfinding strategies and analyzes how air terminal architecture, artworks, and interior design contribute to the airport's operations. The book will be of interest to art historians, architectural historians, practising architects, urban planners, airport specialists, and geographers"--Includes bibliographical references and index.Wayfinding and facilitating passenger circulation -- Air terminal design : agency and a functional aesthetic -- Installing artworks for wayfinding and commerce -- Movement-themed artworks : affect, kinaesthesia, and control -- Place-themed designs and mobility.

Streetfight : handbook for an urban revolution / by Sadik-Khan, Janette,author.(CARDINAL)625447; Solomonow, Seth,author.(CARDINAL)625449;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 299-335) and index.As New York City's transportation commissioner, Janette Sadik-Khan managed the seemingly impossible and transformed the streets of one of the world's greatest, toughest cities into dynamic spaces safe for pedestrians and bikers. Her approach was dramatic and effective: Simply painting a part of the street to make it into a plaza or bus lane not only made the street safer, but it also lessened congestion and increased foot traffic, which improved the bottom line of businesses. Real-life experience confirmed that if you know how to read the street, you can make it function better by not totally reconstructing it but by reallocating the space that's already there. Breaking the street into its component parts, Streetfight demonstrates, with step-by-step visuals, how to rewrite the underlying "source code" of a street, with pointers on how to add protected bike paths, improve crosswalk space, and provide visual cues to reduce speeding. Achieving such a radical overhaul wasn't easy, and Streetfight pulls back the curtain on the battles Sadik-Khan won to make her approach work. She includes examples of how this new way to read the streets has already made its way around the world, from pocket parks in Mexico City and Los Angeles to more pedestrian-friendly streets in Auckland and Buenos Aires, and innovative bike-lane designs and plazas in Austin, Indianapolis, and San Francisco. Many are inspired by the changes taking place in New York City and are based on the same techniques. Streetfight deconstructs, reassembles, and reinvents the street, inviting readers to see it in ways they never imagined.
