CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

1.1 Project Overview

Furniture can be defined as fundamental equipment that makes places such as house
suitable for living. With the presence of furniture, people's lives become easier and more
comfortable [1]. Furniture is grouped accordingly with their functions such as tables or desks
for work and dining, cabinets or cases for storage and chairs or sofas for resting. Every single
piece of furniture with different functions is installed into a house, so as to ease the daily life
and also to make the house becomes more organized.

However, house pricing are increasing over the years [2]. Houses such as apartment
and compact houses become popular. Unfortunately, the primal concern of these houses is the
space available is limited. An issue arise when an individual starting to fill the house with
furniture, as more furniture is being installed, the space in house become lesser. Therefore, it
is important to remove unnecessary furniture and to find the right one to make the house look
more spacious. Space saving furniture is one of the options to solve this problem.

Space saving furniture is transformable furniture that uses less space and provides at
least two types of functions. An example of a space saving furniture is a sofa bed; it can turn
the sofa into a bed when needed, especially when there is a guest coming and staying at home
overnight [3]. Other examples of space saving furniture are foldable table and chair which
can be kept easily when not in use and bookshelves which transform into beds. Bunk beds are
good in small house; it uses the technique to make the furniture more vertical. This
technically takes up the same amount of space; however, it saves the space on the floor.

In a house, an individual usually do this his or her work in the living room or bedroom.
For a working space, table and chair are the must have furniture with an additional cabinet.
However, it is quite space consuming to put all these together in a room. The idea of the
project is a sofa combining with other furniture and serves various functions. It helps in
reducing number of furniture in house and makes the house look more spacious. Besides, the
sofa will help in improving ergonomics on working.

1
1.2 Problem statements
After a few research into smart furniture for space saving design, we are found some
problem statement:

1. Too many furniture causing insufficient space to install them.

Especially for a small house, space is a very precious element. Improper organization of
furniture will occupy a lot of space. As a result, the house will become stuffy. Besides,
one might have difficulty to move back and forth from one place in a disorganized house.

2. Students have problem in finding conducive condition during study.

For a typical study space, one will sit on the chair while studying. However, after a long
period of study, one might having a back pain, he or she might want to insert a soft
cushion to ease their back.

3. Inconvenient for students to get/grab things in different places

When sitting on the chair to study, one might need to move around in order to grab stuffs
like files, books and even a cup of coffee. Frequent movement can cause distraction
during study time. Hence, it will make the study process less efficient. Current study
chair does not equip with features such as space or compartment to store basic study
material like stationary, books and others.

1.3 Objectives

1. To develop a space saving furniture by combining several types of furniture such as table,
book shelf and cabinet into one multifunctional study sofa.
2. To identify ergonomics issues in multifunctional study sofa.
3. To improve the study quality of user.

1.4 Scopes

1. Obtain the customer review through survey by distributing questionnaires.

2. Interpret data from questionnaires and create the House of Quality
3. Search for existing/competitor product and design multifunction study sofa.
4. Draw the project by using CATIA software.
5. Analyse the project by using ANSYS software.
6. An improvement of efficiency, safety and utility.
7. These are the interesting design to attract attention from user.

room/study area is crowded. There is 1 respondent prefer other option than the given.

This question supposed to have a total of 13 respondents only, however, there are 19
responses received. There is a possible reason to this situation, which is maybe some of the
respondents does not read the question thoroughly before answering it.From the analysis,
most of the respondents does not leave the study area or get distracted during their study. For
those who leave the study area, the main reason is that the study supplies are distant away
from study area. Hence, the study sofa should be designed to help the users in storing their
study supplies.
