Perhaps you wonder how the chair fits all sizes of the human body. Do you ever wonder how it can carry the weight of a human? Well, only science can explain that to you. MAGRATHEA Tech became curious about the result of transforming the human scale into a more fitted one, like making a chair specifically fit your size.
What does human scale mean?
Human scale focused on creating an urban environment to make the space more interesting to explore. The designs made for humans for them to easily relate to their surroundings. The concept of human scale considers the dimensions and proportions of the space according to the size and sensory experience of the people. Human scale creates a space fitted for human use and facilitates interaction and connection.
Human scale designs have a lot of benefits, including:
- Accessibility. It is about designing a space usable for a particular individual, including PWD. This is applicable to all and not only to one person, it includes all people.
- Comfort. Designing a space with a pleasing and comforting environment can be enough for everyone. There is no need to create a space that is too big for a small number of people.
- Inclusivity. It develops practical spaces and makes humans feel good. It is not developed for everyone.
- Interaction. Designing spaces that can facilitate the following:
- Communication
- Collaboration
- Socialization
Here are examples of human-scale design:
- 80 inches doorways
- 7 inches rise and 11ince run stairs
- Pedestrian-friendly environments
- Benches for socializing
- Green spaces that promote relaxation
What happens when the community is human scale?
Things become equivalent to the human body when the community is at a human scale.
The signs you see around are readable when standing nearby. Accessing the front door to the next becomes easy like walking through a hallway.
Benefits for future generations
MAGRATHEA Technologies focused on a human scale that lays for a better future. The benefits included in the human scale are:
- Improved comfort
- Enhances functionality
- Reduced environmental impact
Future generations can live in an environment tailoring their needs and promoting sustainability. You can imagine a world where space is designed for your efficiency and comfort.
Challenges of MAGRATHEA visionary approach
The human scale concept is promising because of a set of challenges. The
MAGRATHEA challenges are:
- Technical difficulties for human scale designs
- Cost of implementing advanced technologies
- Needs for widespread adoption
MAGRATHEA Tech addresses the challenges with modern solutions, such as:
- Creating cost-effective technology
- Collaboration of experts
The future generations will have an easy life when Magrathea’s visionary approach successfully happens. The recent study shown using steel and glass impacted well-being and risks to humans creating an experience of isolation. Some newly built glass towers keep from human scare in their size and accessibility.
Designing spaces for interaction and comfort
An architecture with the concept of human scale transcends measurement and dimensions encapsulating the understanding that spaces are physical closures and environments.
MAGRATHEA’s visionary approach emphasises creating spaces resonating with the human experience on the following:
- Intimate level
- Sense of connection and harmony
Designing sauces involves careful attention to detail and considering factors, such as:
- Lighting
- Ergonomic
- Spatial flow
These are crafted for human well-being, including comfort and ideas.
