dc.description.abstractAUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: This research explores the concept of caninometry, an approach to interior design catering to the needs of canine users. Traditional interior design largely relies on anthropometry, which is based on human measurements as a guideline to design spaces. This research introduces the idea of designing spaces beyond anthropometry, considering the needs of other species. However, this only considers canine beings who are non-humans to understand the idea of beyond anthropometry better. This research aims to develop a framework for canine users based on their measurements and spatial requirements extracted from an extensive research study from veterinary and design to learn about their dimensions and daily activities. The goal is to stream the thought process for designing spaces that include human and canine users from the design phase. This research looks into the different breed's behavioral and physical traits and translates these inputs into design principles or interior spaces. The design project “Unleashed - A Canine Re-homing Centre” acts as a practical example of developed principles depicting how caninometry enhances the well-being of human and canine users. The research highlights the importance of the diverse needs of all users, including humans and non-humans, in interior design. It emphasizes the need for a more inclusive and well-rounded design that creates room for all the users in the interior spaces.
