Human Response to Tall Buildings
HUMAN RESPONSE TO TALL BUILD- INGS provides clear-cut, resourceful answers to these and a variety of other questions involved in the planning, development, building, and management of multistory structures. The articles included in this book originated from a recent con- ference held by the office of Research Programs of the American Institute of Architects and the Joint Committee on Tall Buildings. The authors, each an expert on his subject, present a highly detailed cross- section of research findings into the psychological and sociological impact that tall buildings have on those who use them-of- fice workers, the elderly, singles, young couples, and children. In so doing, they provide fresh insight into a public mythology that has proclaimed tall buildings as either "terrible, frightening, ugly, unfit for human habitation" or "beautiful, efficient, the wave of the future."
