Ergonomic Layout

Ergonomic layout in interior planning means arranging furniture and objects so that people can move easily and use spaces comfortably. Designers often use measurements from real people to decide how much space to leave between chairs, tables, and walkways. For example, a kitchen with an ergonomic layout will have counters, sinks, and appliances placed at heights and distances that make cooking and cleaning easier. Good ergonomic layout can help people work faster and feel less tired by reducing the need to stretch or bend too much. This planning can even help with lighting and air flow, making rooms feel better to use every day.
