INTRODUCTION

Interpersonal attraction and close relationship is the social concept applied in our final

project. The social concept is defined as the attraction or relationship between people

which leads to friendship or romantic relationship. Interpersonal attraction and close

relationship is used to improve or maintain interpersonal relationship. This chosen

concept can be illustrated through the built environment design. In today’s generation,

more and more people are indulged in playing electronic devices instead of socialising.
