Furniture Arrangements

1. Function

2. Circulation

3. Human Factors

Furniture Arrangements

• Function – the use an environment will have and the activities that will take place there; it dictates the selection and the arrangement of the furniture; functions should not interfere with other functions.

Furniture Arrangements

• Circulation – Furniture arrangement needs to accommodate free movement or circulation from one space to another; Furniture should be planned to enhance the movement by allowing traffic to flow or by restricting and redirecting the traffic when necessary.

Furniture Arrangements

• HUMAN FACTORS

- Anthropometrics

- Standard Clearances

- Proxemics

- Crowding

- Territoriality

Anthropometrics

The dimensions of the human form; must be standard of measure for interior design

Standard Clearances

1. Major traffic paths should be .90 meter or more2. Minimal clearance for traffic shall be .30 m wide3. Seating pieces for piano, desks, coffee table/small table shall

maintain clearance of .30 m. This also gives room for the user to extend his/her legs.

4. Comfortable dining requires .60 m per person 5. In order to accommodate a seated dinner and space behind for

passage serving a .90 m space shall be maintained. 6. Getting in and out of chair requires .30 m space. 7. Bed to dresser space shall be at least .90 meter8. Space between 2 beds shall be at least .90 meter9. Bed to wall clearance shall at least be .30 meter10. Bathroom clearance for non disabled shall at least be .90 – 1 m

Proxemics

- by Edward T. Hall

- Describes the way people use space and the way that use is related to culture.

Proxemics

1. Space of .30 distance signifies intimacy, affection, comfort, protection and physical aggression.

.30 meters

Proxemics

2. Ideally, each person is within an “invisible bubble” where he separates himself from everyone. Personal space is .30-1.20 m.

Proxemics

3. Social distance is 1.2-3.6 m, and thus having “formal relationship”

.30 -1.20 meters

Proxemics

4. Higher than 3.6 m is interpreted as public distance; little or no personal interaction.

1.20-3.6 meters

Crowding

- explored by Paul Chombart de Lauwe.

• When people have less than 8-10 sqm per person in residences, space crowding exists and illness, stress are rampant. Whereas, people who have more than 14 sqm per person, have lesser stress experiences.

Territoriality

• A study of proxemics that deals with the needed to have a space of our own.
