N2 - This study produces a modest space requirement of the housing unit’s floor plan to assess housing quality and ensure the occupants’ health and well-being. In the urgency of acknowledging the need for quality housing due to the issue of human health and well-being, Indonesia still endures several setbacks. Previous studies suggest that ergonomics emergence becomes a practical perspective as it recognises that the built environment–in this case, housing–is tightly intertwined with human health and well-being. We analysed and regrouped 12 main activities in urban dwelling through survey and questionnaires to form a minimum yet efficient layout regarding furniture usage, occupants’ anthropometry and activity’s space requirement, and circulation space. Results reveal sufficient internal space minimums requiring 30.57 m2 area within interior boundaries, while 37 m2 include external walls. We propose a new floor plan based on 12 main activities while analysing the building performance regarding healthy space requirement in further research.
