    The document discusses designing a space-saving hostel table for product design students. Currently, hostel rooms have little space due to standard furniture taking up 75% of floor areas. The existing hostel tables are not ergonomic and provide little storage. The proposed design will be a wall-mounted, foldable table with modular components and built-in storage to maximize limited space in hostel rooms. The table aims to improve ergonomics and accommodate the drafting needs of product design students.

    SPACE SAVING HOSTEL TABLE

    Product Design 5
    INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
     Hostel life is much fundamental for understudies yet at the
    same time there are a few constraints". There are many issues
    and limitations in the hostel life Like water problem, Food
    problem, Electricity problem, Security Problem, Furniture
    problem.
     Students residing within the hostels do not have adequate
    furniture and space for their everyday works. Due to
    increasing enrollments in university students have less space
    for themselves as they have to accommodate with more
    number of students. Since furniture is a necessity and not a
    luxury every student needs it for their daily task. Furniture is
    tacking almost 50% floor space therefore living in a small
    space requires a smart and space saving furniture solution to
    provide the students ease in moving within the room easily by
    smartly using this 50% space of the room.
     75% space in a hostel room of UET is occupied by the beds
    and Almira's. Then also putting the tables inside the room
    leaves no space for the students to walk freely or offer Namaz
    in the unoccupied space easily. Even two students cant offer
    Namaz at the same time due to shortage of space.
    PROBLEM STATEMENT
     The workspace for product design students’ needs to be
    redesigned as in the hostels there is no sufficient space for
    them to do their work as the tables that are available in the
    UET hostels are not specifically for the product design
    students hence they are not even ergonomically fit for
    students.
    Problems that students most commonly face is
     • During drafting the sheet one has to bend its head and has to stand for
    completing the sheet. Which causes severe neck and back pain.
     • The size of chair and table do not match ergonomically. The angle of sight is
    never maintained.
     • There is no proper storage for students to place their colors and other
    accessories.
     • Shortage of space. Students do not have much space to place a large table
    or whole workspace in the room.
    MISSION
    “Designing a workspace for the designer that will assist its
    performance and will provide ease in its work’’
    SUGGESTIONS
     Furniture in the hostels should be smart and space saving so
    that the space can be utilized to its full.
    • Tables in the hostels are main area which can be worked on
    and much space can be saved if we solve the issues in the
    tables.
    EXISTING HOSTEL TABLES
    PROBLEMS IN EXISTING TABLES
     Ergonomics
     Spacing
     Storage
     Heavy
     Aesthetics
     Mechanism
    DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS

    It can be wall mounted as in this case


    we can save much more floor space.
    It should must be foldable.
    STORAGE
    Along with the foldability there is a much more important factor
    that should be dealt with smartness and the issue is the storage.
    Options for storage
     Drawers
     Shelves
     Rings for sheet roll
    MODULARITY
    As talking about space saving furniture modularity in design is a
    basic and very important part of it. So the designed study table
    should be modular so that only the part needed at the time
    should be in use and after use that part can be closed.
    FUNCTION
