Implementation of the Physical Distancing Concept on Waiting Chair Design in Public Space

—Restrictions on the use of public spaces, self-isolation and physical distancing due to Covid-19 have changed people's habits and behavior in public spaces. The new normal condition demands adjustments in the architectural and interior fields, one of them is the design of waiting chair in public space specifically. So that this research will become a solution to solve the problems in the new normal interior by waiting chair design. The research method uses experimental research methods with analysis. The experimental method is used when designing the chair through the QFD (Quality Function Deployment) method which will then be discussed by analyzing the data according to the theoretical basis. QFD method used to achieve design quality based on user demand. Steps in QFD method those are product planning, design product, process planning and process-control planning. Product Planning: the process of collecting data related to user profiles, field observations, user interviews and also appropriate literature studies. In the second step, Product Design: brainstorming to create product concepts based on analysis of existing data. In the third step, Process Planning: modeling produces 3D images, working drawings and 1:1 prototype model and the last step, Process Control Planning: product evaluation to prospective customers by distributing questionnaires to determine aesthetic and ergonomic aspects of design.
