| Abstract | ||||
| Many large public spaces suffer from poor plan division and random placement of furniture, leading to visual clutter and compromised mobility for users. Designers need to find solutions to divide space layouts according to the golden ratio grid, achieving balance among various elements and optimizing furniture distribution. Implementing the golden ratio in public space layouts can improve user movement flow. Restaurants are selected as a primary example due to their high user volume. This research examines the outcomes of applying golden ratio grids to various restaurant layouts and their impact on enhancing user movement flow, particularly during peak hours. Research Problem is the lack of interest in applying golden ratio grids to the initial stages of designing interior spaces, especially public spaces layouts, which has an impact on dividing spaces and distributing furniture pieces in a better way. On the other hand, enhance the movement flow. Research Objective is referring to the importance of applying golden ratio grids to interior design layouts of public spaces. The other objective is discussing the role of using golden ratio grids in designing restaurants layout to enhance the movement flow of users. Finally, the use of golden ratio grids may indeed be the best solution for designing the layout of public spaces, such as restaurants. This approach ensures proportional division of space zones and balanced proportions between furniture and movement corridors, thus enhancing the flow of movement for users. | ||||
