Privacy Considerations in Design Projects

When engaging in any type of design project, it is essential to have an open dialogue with the client regarding the issue of privacy.  Different clients will have different needs and desires, and it is essential to take into consideration requirements for privacy in regard to the needs of the unique clients and their particular behaviors (Menconi  Stewart-Pollack, 2005).  Engaging in design projects always deals with the subject of privacy, and the ways in which clients want to limit or increase exposure to human and environmental elements is a necessary component of the design process.
   
Client behaviors are always able to be influenced by the actions taken by the designer.  In regard to privacy, it is necessary to know which elements of the design need to be formulated in particular ways in order to satisfy the needs of the client in relation to the environment (Menconi  Stewart-Pollack, 2005).  It is possible that in an urban area, clients may desire more of a boundary between themselves and other people in the busy environment.  If the environment is a sunny region, clients may desire to limit sunlight, or perhaps the opposite, making use of the benefits of sunlight by allowing it to enter.  There will always be sensory considerations to make in regard to having a comprehensive overview of the privacy needs of clients.
   
The relation of the individual to the environment is always a balance of stressors, and it makes sense for designers to take into consideration the ways in which clients are particularly affected by environmental stimuli.  If proactive privacy measures can be taken beforehand in regard to beginning design projects, then the happiness and satisfaction of the clients are more likely to be ensured (Menconi  Stewart-Pollack, 2005).  The level, thickness, and type of boundary between clients and other people and situations in their environments have to be crafted as an essential element of the design project which matches the complete desires and requirements of the client.
