This document is a planning guide for educational or office workspaces. It is intended for architects, interior designers, facility managers, or educators who need to design functional learning or work environments.
This document is a practical planning guide for designing educational or office workspaces. It is aimed at architects, interior designers, facility managers, and educators who need to create functional, comfortable, and efficient environments for learning or working.
The first section, Planning and Layout, covers desk and workstation dimensions for a comfortable workspace. It specifies floor area per person and net internal area per workstation, including circulation but excluding major shared facilities. A plan view shows a single workstation with desk footprint, chair zone, and circulation route.
The guide then addresses meeting room sizes, giving typical room sizes based on approximately 2 square meters per meeting seat including circulation. The Types of Workspaces section describes three categories: individual workspace for independent work, collaborative workspace for face-to-face interaction, and flexible workspace that adapts to different learning activities.
The document continues with Furniture and Ergonomics, followed by sections on Utility, Cable Management Ideas, Lighting, Acoustics, and an Appendix. Each section provides practical specifications and recommendations for creating well-designed workspaces.
