Foot Traffic: Matching Material and Human Behaviour for Sustainable Outcomes

Description

Foot Traffic explores how flooring specification should be informed by human behaviour, whole-life performance, and sustainability.

As one of the most direct interfaces between people and buildings, flooring has a significant impact on durability, maintenance, lifecycle costs, and environmental performance. Yet it is often specified based on aesthetics or initial cost rather than long-term value.

This CPD demonstrates why flooring should be considered essential building infrastructure, not a fashion item, and provides practical guidance on selecting materials that deliver resilient, sustainable, and user-centred interior environment.
