PROXEMICS

CRITERIA FOR HUMAN INTERACTIONS

Social distance between people is reliably correlated with physical distance, as are intimate and personal distance according to following delineations:

Intimate distance for embracing, touching or whispering
close phase - less than 6 inches (15cm)
far phase - 6 to 18 inches (15-45cm)

Personal distance for interactions among good friends
close phase - 1.5 to 2.5 feet (45-75cm)
far phase - 2.5 to 4 feet (75-120cm)

Social distance
for interactions among acquaintances
Close phase - 5 t0 7 feet (1.5-2.1m)
Far phase - 7 to 12 feet (2.1-3.6m)

Public distance used to public speaking
Close phase - 12 to 25 feet (3.6-7.5m)
Far phase - 25 feet (7.5m) or more

Recessed-leg construction
The practical and minimalistic 'recessed-leg' form was established by the Song dinasty and continued to be reproduced throughout the Ming and Qing dinasties. This basic construction system was commonly applied to the creation of stools, chairs, tables, and cabinets.

Corner Leg Construction

Simianping forms likely developed from early box-style constructions, whose use as tables and platforms are evident in Tang period paintings.
Furniture of 'waisted' style retains architectural characteristics of the classical Greek pedestal, which migrated eastward to Gandhara where, as a dignified support, it became associated with the seat of Buddha.

Bamboo-style construction
