Using research to inform design solutions
–
The purpose of this paper is to provide information for facility managers, building owners, and designers to increase their knowledge of research vocabulary and methods. Using evidence-based design criteria to add value to the workplace via facility management and design, and determine how to apply evidence-based design criteria using the searchable database of InformeDesign® are presented and discussed.
This is a descriptive paper developed from literature related to research strategies and referenced sources about using research in the design process.
The paper provides a brief tutorial on research strategies for those readers who do not have a background in research strategies. Additionally, research summaries (RS) from InformeDesign are used to show how research can be integrated into the design process.
The information contained in this paper is an overview of research processes and uses only one source for readers to access research articles.
Research findings are available from InformeDesign, an innovative web site that provides design and human behavior research transformed into RS from hundreds of research sources. At this time, there are over 1,300 RS in the searchable database; all are written in user-friendly language.
Increased knowledge of basic research principles and analysis of research findings can enhance facility managers' understanding and evaluation and design consultants' creation of evidence-based design solutions. Understanding the benefits of incorporating research into the decision-making process is an additional outcome of this action.
