Abstract/Executive Summary
It is common for children to leave their homes to study, especially as they advance in their education. Students whose homes are far from the institution seek suitable accommodations near the campus where they can temporarily reside. One aspect of selecting a living space is its ability to sustain a student’s lifestyle by having access to the resources that meet their needs and wants. Therefore, it is crucial to have a deep understanding of an individual’s preferences. The research aims to create an interior design of a condominium unit based on the preferences of senior high school students of De La Salle University - Manila. In addition, the research promotes social sustainability in interior design to support the needs of the demographic and what they demand in their spaces at this time and in the years to come. Through surveys and interviews, the artist-researchers used the data gathered from the respondents to assist the artwork creation. With these methods, the artists gained an in-depth understanding of their preferences in the interior design of a condominium unit to back up and enhance the design choices. The artist-researchers created a floor plan, elevation and perspective drawings, site development plan, and a three-dimensional model of a condominium unit to represent the design preferences of the students. The research determined that the students preferred a minimalist condominium unit. In conclusion, the findings of this study contributed to the interior industry and students, as it looks closely into the genuine needs and preferences in student accommodations.
