John Wiley and Sons, Inc., the leading publisher of interior design
education, today announced the publication of two new resources for
professional kitchen and bathroom designers from the National Kitchen
and Bath Association, the only non-profit trade association dedicated to
the kitchen and bath industry. Each in their second edition, Kitchen
Planning: Guidelines, Codes, Standards (March 2013, $95.00), and Bath
Planning: Guidelines, Codes, Standards (February 2013, $95.00) are
the go to references for both professional designers and students
seeking technical and aesthetic information presented in full-color with
the latest on universal and sustainable design.
Both books have been written by leading industry authorities and
reviewed by an Association panel of experts. The two new books represent
the current best practices in creating the two most important rooms of
the house based on the latest extensive industry research.
Each book incorporates the relevant NKBA Kitchen and Bathroom
Planning Guidelines and the related Access Standards.
The National Kitchen & Bath Association established the standard
guidelines and specifications for safe and effective kitchen and bath
planning and these updated editions now published by Wiley reflect the
latest industry standards.
Bath Planning, one of the leading titles in the NKBA's
Professional Resource Library, has been used by the majority of bath
design college programs as well as professional designers and industry
professionals who have become Certified Bath Designers.
Whether for remodels or new construction, professional kitchen designers
need to know the process of planning a project and to meet codes and
aesthetic requirements, as they manage their business in an ethical and
profitable manner. Kitchen Planning tackles the most popular
and lucrative area of residential interior design. This book also makes
the perfect reference for any kitchen designer wanting to advance their
career as a Certified Kitchen Designer (CKD).
Completely revised and redesigned throughout with new photographs and
illustrations in full color, and with a special emphasis on client
needs, research, and industry information, these two new references will
constantly be at the fingertips of both students and professional
designers. Both Bath Planning and Kitchen
Planning are now available for purchase online and at retailers
nationwide in both print and all e-book formats. For a list of
