This book considers the supportive role that design can play for unhoused persons and other users and argues that the built environment is an equal partner alongside other therapies and programs for ending a person’s state of homelessness. Homelessness and the Built Environment is an imperative and singular reference for interior designers, architects and building renovation sponsors, design researchers and students forging new discoveries, and policy makers who seek to assist communities affected by homelessness.

Interior Design: Practical Strategies for Teaching and Learning provides a pedagogical approach specifically geared to instruction in interior design. Combining theory with practical application and examples unique to the interior design discipline, the unifying theme of the book is achieving excellence in design education. For first-time teachers whose formal training as educators is more limited than their expertise in the discipline of interior design, this text serves as a primary, specialized resource. For both new and seasoned teachers, it is a handy, just-in-time reference for those sticky situations when one needs a fresh perspective in teaching an idea in a new way. The text is enriched by case studies; grading rubrics and student critiques; definitions of educational jargon; tables and graphs; photos of teaching-related activities and spaces; and a bibliography for further information on teaching and learning topics.

In the United States the issue of homelessness is becoming more prevalent, with an estimated 649,917 people experiencing homelessness on any given night (US Department of Housing & Urban Development, 2010). Many of the homeless flock to shelters, but are turned away due to over capacity (National Coalition for the Homeless, 2009). In addition, the few shelters and transitional housing that exist lack programs that enable homeless individuals to get back on their feet, and become contributing citizens again.

The topic of people's overall health and happiness has been gaining increased attention and press in recent years. The proof that 'happy people live longer'has been given by many studies that investigate the contributions of subjective well-‐being (SWB) to health and longevity. Some studies have explored areas that may contribute to SWB such as health care systems, eating habits, and physical attributes among other factors.
