Static Anthropometry
Functional Anthropometry
The use of anthropometrics in building design aims to ensure that every person is as
comfortable as possible. In practical terms, this means that the dimensions must be
appropriate, ceilings high enough, doorways and hallways wide enough, and so on. In
recent times, it has come to have particular significance for workplace design, and the
relationship between desk, chair, keyboard and computer display.
ERGONOMICS
Ergonomics is the study of designing and optimizing environments that prioritize our
well-being, safety and performance. It considers how we interact with our surroundings,
our abilities, our limitations and the types of tasks we perform every day. Ultimately,
ergonomics is about creating spaces that use specific systems, products and designs to
enhance how we use them.
Ergonomics
In design, ergonomics is used to create safe, efficient and comfortable places for people
based on how they interact with their surroundings. This can include customizing
furniture, lighting and cabinets to suit individual needs.
The main goal of ergonomics is to improve safety and comfort by minimizing the risk of
injury caused by repetitive movements. Using ergonomic tools helps to increase
productivity and performance while reducing strain and fatigue.
Select a comfortable mattress and pillows for maximum comfort and relaxation. Place
side tables on both sides of the bed for easy access, and if you choose to have a TV in
your bedroom, make sure to have it placed directly across from the bed to avoid strain.
Layered lighting is also crucial in the bedroom to make the room more comfortable,
whether you plan on reading in bed or doing your makeup.
