Abstract

Home is a place where people live and work in their daily life. One of the activities is learning. Study room is a room that is used for learning activities so it must be considered carefully in designing the facilities needed, especially for furniture. Study of Anthropometry & Ergonomic for Study Room Furniture at Pantai Mutiara aims to compare the literature data with field data regarding the furniture size to find out whether the ergonomics principles have been applied or not so that users can feel comfortable while on the move. This study uses a mixed method, namely qualitative and quantitative by combining numerical data, text, and images to provide a more complete representation through a descriptive approach to three pieces of furniture. In designing a piece of furniture, the designer must understand the anthropometric aspect so that it can produce ergonomic and comfortable furniture for the user. The application of anthropometric data has been seen in study chairs, study tables with cabinets & bookshelves, and storage cabinets. However, the study shows that only study chairs that as a whole have met the principles and rules of ergonomics. While the study table with cupboard & bookshelves and storage cabinet still needs to be considered again on several aspects that are still not following with anthropometric studies and ergonomics rules. This research is expected to be useful for designers to design comfortable furniture and following the user.
