Medule

'Medule', a projectfrom Shma that presents an experiment of transforming compact spaces intofunctional living spaces. At the same time, Improving the living style to focusmore on functionality and take into account the environment in particular. Through this new design approach that manages to take up less space so that infuture days when the resources are limited, Humans will still be able toperform various activities in daily life to the fullest under a restricted wayof living. Designed andreferenced based on collecting samples of behavior of people while inquarantine which can be divided mainly into 2 types: Vertical activities(working, eating) and Semi-sedentary activities (relaxing, sleeping). Theprocess of analysis also includes environmental data analysis such as light,temperature, sound, smell, size, and type of material to design and refigure anenvironment that is suitable for humans. Shma has designedthe Medule to be assembled and disassembled into 4 units, each with a differentpurpose. In which anintermediary such as a Core Unit acts as a connector connecting to other units,it serves as a centerpiece and is a unit that performs standing activities suchas exercise. Unit A supportsactivities particularly in the positions of sitting and lying down such assleeping, working, reading, yoga, or even stargazing. Unit B supportsactivities where people are either sitting or standing such as working, cooking,washing dishes, or dining. Unit C serves as anauxiliary unit. it provides an extra storage space for storing equipments,pets, or a small garden for relaxation. What will Medulebring to the ‘Future Living’? - Meduleis a housing design that has apositive impact on the environment by reducing the amount of space that is usedby humans to increase the area of nature. This helps restorethe limited resources and save energy. We should be looking at nature as alarge house where we all live together. Medule can be used as a pilot of spaceresource reduction ideas. Starting from improving the living style to focus onthe functionality of the space and be more considerate of the environment.
