Findings from a study of living accommodations for young people are given in the first part. Features are identified that are regarded as important by management and residents. Suggestions are made as to how user response may be predicted and the responses of the residents to eight schemes are examined in detail. Also considered are--(1) the provision for the necessities of daily living associated with study bedrooms, and (2) the more general communal facilities with reference to those required by young people living away from home. The second part gives the results of a survey of residents' experience of storage units and furniture in study bedrooms. (RK)
