Facilities rules

I made reference to some “rules of thumb” for space needs. I wanted to offer some resources speaking to that.

I have a working rule. “If you need some specific, nondenominational, technical information about church life, look to the Armed Forces.” Somehow, they usually have an answer, even if no denomination does. (Online, or for free, anyway.) Thus, see

  • “Flexible design makes effective classrooms”
  • The ABC’s of school furniture (Archive link.) Though speaking to the needs of a church-based school, it is a sobering breakdown of the cost of furnishings and space needs.
  • Also, it is worth noting that children and youth, in their educational setting, need much more space per capita than adults.
