Space planning is a highly integrated aspect of designing in architecture
and interior design. It is in fact one of the formative elements that forms
the user experience on a very basic and subconscious level.

clients. After acquiring all their requirements, they would focus on
creating design concepts and then the space planning for the same in the
most efficient and effective manner.
In order to enhance the level of engagement and difficulty, participants
would be assigned a term pertaining to the concept of "senses". The

Studio Unit

The studio focuses on space planning with an approach of understanding an artist and representing their ideologies as a concept to the practicality and functionality of space.

Our studio begins with foundational studies and exercises aimed at understanding anthropometry and the ideation of space planning. We delve into the intricacies of human dimensions and behaviors, crafting a comprehensive understanding of how spaces are inhabited and interacted with. Building upon this knowledge.

Then assigned specific artists as metaphors for each project. The aim was to transcend mere functionality, transforming spaces into dynamic expressions of identity and purpose.we bridge the gap between abstract concepts and tangible realities, ensuring that every design reflects the essence of both the artist and the inhabitant.

The discussions entail site visits to various stores for market surveys, alongside gathering inputs from jurors and mentors.
