| Summary |
"Building Type Basics for Recreational Facilities guides architects and designers through the basics of programming, designing, and planning many types of recreational facilities, including golf and country clubhouses; tennis, aquatic, skiing, and equestrian support facilities; and spas and fitness centers. It also tackles the practical challenges architects, engineers, and consultants face in creating attractive and financially viable leisure facilities. Using the highly visual, nuts-and-bolts approach that has become the trademark of the Building Type Basics series, this practical guide offers techniques for incorporating environmental planning into recreation building design."--BOOK JACKET |
