Doors

Doors and doorways provide access from the outside into the interior
of a building as well as passage between interior spaces

Spatial Planning of Doors

Another consideration in determining the location of a doorway is the

view seen through its opening, both from the adjacent space and
upon entering. When visual privacy for a room is desired, a doorway,
even when open, should not permit a direct view into the private zone
of the space

3
Spatial Planning of Doors

In linking the interior spaces of a building, doorways connect

pathways. Their locations influence our patterns of movement from
space to space, as well as within a space. The nature of these patterns
should be appropriate to the uses and activities housed within the
interior spaces

Space must be provided for our comfortable movement and the

operation of doors. At the same time, there must also be sufficient
and appropriately proportioned space remaining for the arrangement
of furnishings and activities.

Spatial Planning of Stairs
Stairs allow us to move vertically between the various floor levels of a
building. The two most important functional criteria in the design of
stairs are safety and ease of ascent and descent. The dimensions of a
stair’s risers and treads should be proportioned to fit our body
movement. Their pitch, if steep, can make ascent physically tiring as
well as psychologically forbidding, and can make descent precarious. If
the pitch is shallow, a stair must have treads deep enough to fit our
stride
