I am designing the program zones and interior layout of the SSLC. Furniture arrangement is an important part of the consideration to create socially intuitive spaces for the elderly and volunteers. The furniture is agglomerated based on social group sizes, categorised using the concept of proxemics. The categories are :
Personal (for a group of 3-4), Social Informal (for a group of 5-6), Social Formal (for a group ranging from 6-12), Public Space (spaces that encourages chance encounters and interactions)
