Abstract

The research aims to create functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces to meet the needs of users, as well as to propose design solutions that can be applied to most current residential units. The research problem is the need for users of small or limited interior spaces to have special spaces that meet their functional and aesthetic desires. This can be achieved through functional design treatments that do not waste available space or obstruct the use of internal space. The approach taken in this study was inductive, which involved reviewing previous studies on design solutions and treatments. The research also used the descriptive analytical method to analyze the phenomenon through private data. The results of the study showed that studying all human and changing needs related to housing can lead to realistic and applicable design solutions, allowing access to the most suitable housing for its occupants. Additionally, the use of simple design treatments can solve complex housing design problems, although it may require reconsidering budgetary issues. Finally, flexible thinking about reusing available spaces in the interior space in different ways contributes to solving design problems in an innovative way that meets changing human needs.
