Study on Evaluation of Visual Quality of Office Spaces

part2: Evaluation of Visual Quality for Vocational Trainers by Evaluation Grid Method

Abstract

This paper studies visual evaluation of office spaces for vocational trainers by evaluation grid method. Previous paper shows visual quality of office spaces for university students without experiences in an office space by presenting pictures of an existing office room. This study surveys cognitive structures of office spaces with inquiries and interviews for 22 vocational trainers with more than 3 years career. The same inquiries and interviews are carried out for university students as the comparison. As a result, the comparative cognitive structures between vocational trainers and university students are shown to analyze their evaluation structures qualitatively.
