ABSTRACT
In an effort to continue its role in improving the academic skills of the institution, Al-Kholili Islamic Boarding School in Bandung Regency is required to be able to address the needs of their students. One of them is the recitation; the limited space and the size of the existing activity support tools can cause discomfort when students carry out these activities. Given that the recitation is a very important learning activity, it is necessary to design multifunctional furniture as a supporting tool that can stimulate students’ interest so that they can carry out recitation activities comfortably. Using qualitative methods to find out and analyze the students’ needs during the recitation, this design begins with observing and interviewing students as initial data and to formulate problems, then it is developed based on theories related to small spaces and multifunctional furniture to analyze design needs. The result of the design is in the form of a multifunctional Quran stand that puts forward functional aspects customized to the students’ needs when reciting in a limited space. The results of this design are also expected to serve as a reference and research in designing furniture in a limited space.
