Abstract

The 2020 COVID-19 outbreak has deeply redefined our relationship to public spaces. The implementation of restrictions on community activities in Jakarta alone has resulted in 1030 restaurants permanently closed and 400 restaurants temporarily closed from early 2020 to 2021. Public preference has shifted to outdoor areas with open air space to reduce the possibility of transmission. Therefore, shop house food and beverage retailers that operated in big cities may find a challenge to keep the customers comfort. This paper is investigating adaptation in the interior design approach in shop houses design. The method used for this research was the systematic literature review and typology studies. Systematic literature review was used to define, study, analyse, and classify available design adaptation of indoor health and comfort to mitigate the transmission in the public spaces. Typology studies conducted by comparing literature reviews, existing pre COVID design, and proposed conceptual design made by students in Design Interior and Styling for Commercial and Retail Space studio. The result shows that the design approach that put further indoor health and comfort criterias consideration were very rare to be found. This was generally due to site limitations, requests from the owners, and limited awareness from interior designers to indoor health and comfort. In the final analysis, it is found that a guide and reference to achieve better indoor health and comfort can be found in Greenship Interior Space. By applying these green building principles, better indoor health and environment will be possibly provided.
