The study of human body measurements on a comparative basis is known as anthropometrics. Its applicability to the design process is seen in the physical fit, or interface, between the human body and the various components of interior space.

Human Dimension and Interior Space is the first major anthropometrically based reference book of design standards for use by all those involved with the physical planning and detailing of interiors, including interior designers, architects, furniture designers, builders, industrial designers, and students of design. The use of anthropometric data, although no substitute for good design or sound professional judgment should be viewed as one of the many tools required in the design process. This comprehensive overview of anthropometrics consists of three parts.

The first part deals with the theory and application of anthropometrics and includes a special section dealing with physically disabled and elderly people. It provides the designer with the fundamentals of anthropometrics and a basic understanding of how interior design standards are established. The second part contains easy-to-read, illustrated anthropometric tables, which provide the most current data available on human body size, organized by age and percentile groupings. Also included is data relative to the range of joint motion and body sizes of children. The third part contains hundreds of dimensioned drawings, illustrating in plan and section the proper anthropometrically based relationship between user and space. The types of spaces range from residential and commercial to recreational and institutional, and all dimensions include metric conversions.

In the Epilogue, the authors challenge the interior design profession, the building industry, and the furniture manufacturer to seriously explore the problem of adjustability in design. They expose the fallacy of designing to accommodate the so-called average man, who, in fact, does not exist. Using government data, including studies prepared by Dr. Howard Stoudt, Dr. Albert Damon, and Dr. Ross McFarland, formerly of the Harvard School of Public Health, and Jean Roberts of the U.S. Public Health Service, Panero and Zelnik have devised a system of interior design reference standards, easily understood through a series of charts and situation drawings. With Human Dimension and Interior Space, these standards are now accessible to all designers of interior environments.

The best foundation!
Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow, Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow
I recently tried the Jane Iredale makeup powder foundation and I have to say, it's absolutely amazing! This foundation has quickly become my go-to for achieving a flawless and natural-looking complexion. One of the things I love about this powder foundation is its lightweight. It feels very light on the skin and allows it to breathe, which is perfect for those who prefer a more natural and comfortable makeup look. It doesn't feel heavy or cakey at all, even after hours of wear. The coverage of this foundation is also impressive. It provides just the right amount of coverage to even out my skin tone and conceal any imperfections, while still allowing my skin to look like skin. It doesn't settle into fine lines or emphasize dry patches, giving me a smooth and radiant finish. Another great feature of this foundation is its long-lasting power. It stays put throughout the day, even in humid weather or during physical activities. I don't have to worry about it melting off or fading, which is a huge plus for me. I use the Jane D2O spray prior to putting on the powder and a final spritz after applying to set. I also appreciate the fact that Jane Iredale powder foundation is made with high-quality and skin-friendly ingredients. It is free from harsh chemicals and irritants, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. It gives me peace of mind knowing that I'm not compromising the health of my skin while wearing it. Overall, I feel Jane Iredale foundation is a game-changer. I highly recommend it to anyone!

The best foundation!!!
Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow
10/10 powder foundation. If you’re on the fence, just do it. I have used this product since 2014 and haven’t ever bothered to try and find anything better. There’s simply no need. I’ve used the color Golden Glow almost every time, and it has always managed to match my skin throughout all the seasons. It is lightweight but full coverage. It’s magic. I mostly wear this on its own, with just moisturizer as a base. It’s so easy to apply with a large brush, and run out the door feeling like you have a full face of makeup on. It does pair beautifully with my liquid foundation for when I’m looking for maximum coverage. The price point is fair in my opinion. Each refill last me about 6 months. You do have to purchase the compact case which is an addition $25 but that’s a one time fee. I have never been happier or purchased a skincare product more frequently than this one. You seriously won’t regret it.

Flawless Full Coverage
Style: Refill, Color: Warm Silk
My absolute FAVORITE foundation for anyone with extremely oily skin. Honestly, this foundation is great for all skin types. The clean ingredients are a huge plus. I have tried every oil control makeup combination possible over the past two plus decades that I’ve worn makeup. I can’t get over how amazingly flawless and silky smooth this product makes my skin look. It’s lightweight yet 100% full coverage foundation. I live in the most humid climate possible and appreciate the fact that I’m not having to reapply more powder anytime I step outside for more than five minutes. After using this powder for the last few years I realized that I needed to make a change in my products and have slowly started purchasing more and more Jane Iredale products. I cannot recommend this powder foundation enough for anyone who has oily skin and wants a full coverage foundation that looks and feels natural!!!

Simplicity
Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow, Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow
All time favorite powder of 15 years 🫶 doesn't clog pores, stays on well all day, and is smooth to apply. A little goes a long way with a moisturizer and toner. Hope to see the pad applicators included in the refills in the near future, I used a teardrop sponge that worked great to cover pores and even tone. I didn't cover my cheek bones to allow natural pigment. Thanks for the wonderful quality over the years 🤗

Wonderful mineral powder foundation
Style: Refill, Color: Warm Sienna, Style: Refill, Color: Warm Sienna
Wow this powder foundation blew all the other powder foundations I’ve tried out of the water. I have this strong yellow undertone to my skin and always struggle, I purchased warm sienna and by all means it’s not dark at all. This foundation leaves a soft natural glow that makes my skin look natural yet covers imperfections very well. It also feels light weight on my skin and lasts 8 hours before it starts to break down with my oily skin but the Danessa Myricks yummy skin blurring balm powder that I use as a primer in universal helps with all that. Highly recommend on mature skin since I’m in my 40’s those pesky fine lines look smooth.
