Project 2 - Life Capsule

The main aim of Project 2 is to expand the interpretation of one self and heighten the awareness of students about the human body, interaction of space and body, and explores the role of reasoning and logic in shaping the form and space. 

Project involves designing a ‘Life Capsule’: a confined space which will house multi-functional furniture(s) which the user can use for several positions and for activities within a 24 hours period. This project consists of two major stages 2a: Interim ‘The Shell’ which the student (group) will design the life capsule envelope and Project 2b: Final ‘Furnitecture’ wherein student (group) will creatively design the internal space of the capsule or a can be one multi-functional furniture to address users various positions (seating, lying down, reading, painting and others) which will be corresponding to its activities. The very limited space will challenge the group to thoroughly examine their design approach by strictly considering and adhering to anthropometrics and ergonomics requirements.

Project 2 enhances students analytical and creative skills through designing a limited space and create the most functional and interesting ‘Life Capsule’. The project will likewise enhance their design exploration skills through scaled/study models and then is blown up to a full scaled installation.
