In this week, I have been refining my 15 rough ideas and came out with 6 more detailed design on 3 A2 design sheets. The final outcome is also been designed.
Most of the designs on the A2 design sheets are flat pack but some of them are not, but all of them fulfill the other requirements that I set myself with. While I was sketching out those 6 final ideas, I have combined a few of my designs on my design book and develop it into a brand new design that can carry out the advantages of those designs I created in the design book.
When I am figuring out my design outcome for my final product of the project, I take a whole day to look through all the things I have done for the final major project. Firstly I look at all my research stuff from the project proposal to the research sketchbook, then my investigation (flat pack) sketchbook and finally my materials sketchbook. I do that because I think it can helps me to refresh my mind a bit and to confirm that I remember where I am aiming to design and what is the problem that I want to solve. Lastly, I flip over the design book/sheets to see if I have any new inspirations out of it, and I found a few interesting thing that can be included in my design outcome. At last, I spent around 2 hours to sketch out my design outcome and another hour to make a sketched model of it.
In conclusion, I think I did work hard in this week to finish all those design sheets and sketch models. In the coming week, I think I am going to figure out which materials that can substitute the materials that I want it to be made out of to make the full scale prototype of my design outcome.
