PERSON-ENVIRONMENT CONGRUENCE IN ARCHITECTURE STUDIO ENVIRONMENT

RM55.00

The studio is a central hub of architectural teaching and learning. This book investigates the relationship between architecture students and the studio environment in the notion of Person-Environment Congruence (PEC). PEC emphasizes the capability of the studio environment to fulfil architecture students’ needs. The focus is thus on the state of being congruent between students’ essential learning needs and the studio attributes around them. This book reveals sixteen key studio attributes from the perspective of architecture students falling under five categories. These categories comprise Physiological Facilities, Information and Communications Technology, Indoor Environment Quality, Territoriality, Furniture, and Reference. Furthermore, the
discussion also concentrates on motivational beneficial consequences and values that influence these studio attributes. This book showcases the importance of achieving Person-Environment Congruence in providing a sustainable and conducive studio environment aligned with architecture students’ needs.
