Book Description
This updated and expanded guide to designing barrier-free facilities for the hospitality industry now covers the regulations and guidelines of the recently enacted Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The book offers architects, interior designers, and facilities managers the expertise they need to ensure that hotels, motels, restaurants, recreational and conference centers, and other facilities meet all pertinent ADA rules. Readers will get detailed information that enables them to do cost/benefit analyses of various design options, plus handy checklists and survey forms to help them assess what barriers need to be removed or modified. They will also learn how accessible design can lead to increased sales, greater customer satisfaction, and prudent planning. From entry lobbies to hotel corridors, from eating areas to guest rooms and rest rooms, from saunas to outdoor showers--it's all here in one convenient guide.
