Speaker: Architects’ designs
should reflect people’s needs
strut
By Shane Hall
Reporter
Designers and architects often ig
nore people and their needs when
designing buildings, Dr. Brian Net-
tleton said Wednesday.
In a lecture titled “The Designer’s
Dilemma: People,” Nettleton spoke
to an audience of students, faculty
and staff members of the College of
Architecture and Environmental
Design. He addressed the need for
architects to consider people when
designing a structure.
“If there were no people, there
would be no buildings,” Nettleton
told his audience.
Nettleton said the first question
one must ask oneself is whether ar
chitects do indeed ignore people.
His lecture, accompanied by slides,
addressed observations he made re
garding this question. Nettleton said
there was evidence that architects
still ignore people.

There is other evidence of ar
chitects not being taught to consider
E eople, he added. He spoke of when

looked at sketches of the interior of
the Langford Architecture Center
done by more than 40 first-year stu

dent, he said, “displayed aladj
knowledge for these kinds off
pects.”
He said he once went into the
Sterling C. Evans Library and pulled
every fifth book dealing with people
from the architecture section and
did an analysis to see how often the
books were borrowed. About 10 per
cent had actually been borrowed,
Nettleton said.
“I looked at them all and there
was only one sketch that had people
in it,” Nettleton said. When he asked
the student why the sketch had peo
ple, Nettleton said the student told
him of a professor who said things
should be human scale.
“ ‘Good man,T told him,” Nettle
ton said. “ ‘10 out of 10 on the scale
for you!’ ”
In reviewing student designs,
questions about how the design
would affect those who would use
the building are rarely asked, Nettle
ton explained.
