The installation is designed to be as simple as possible so it can be fabricated by a joiner or general builder and assembled by the student team. The installation is self-supporting and can sit on rubber levelling mats, set directly on the pavement. The structural frame doubles as the book case and the polycarbonate sheet stabilises the overall enclosure and let light in. #DESIGNBOX COMPETITION SKIN#The proposals involved a stressed skin structure in timber and polycarbonate sheet. Plans, sections and elevations of the proposals forĭiscussions with suppliers to resolve price This was of increased importance in the period of social and economic lock-down because of Covid-19. The team discussed the advantages of simplifying the range of materials and number of assembly processes to enable a simple procurement route with as few supply chains as possible. The proposals were drawn up in CAD to create a measurable set of drawings for discussion with suppliers and fabricators. Planting selected for variety of type and colour, and for ease of maintenance Materials for practicality, durability and fun They were identified for their variety of types, colours, flowers and even fruit. The team selected plants which are ideal for horizontal and vertical surfaces, require little maintenance and can be easily trained. The selection of materials examined the practicalities of the surfaces required with opportunities to introduce colour and light into the installation. The project seeks to capture light and encourage the growth of plants, to help make it an engaging and interactive installation for everyone. The concept was developed to capture the scenic river views whilst isolating people from the noise of the city. Initial concept ideas and MoSCoW analysis 'Put your feet up and read a book' was a key reaction to the site from the student team. A screen with planting and a wall of books separates people from the noise and bustle of the traffic behind. Relaxing in the installation, people can observe the passage of time, watching the activity on the river and passers-by. It is designed as a catalyst for community involvement, to draw people to the installation to engage with others and read a book, surrounded by greenery. #DESIGNBOX COMPETITION PROFESSIONAL#Participants will have the chance to win a trip to Steelcase, present to professional judges, and ultimately compete for both cash and product prizes.Site investigation, design considerations and brainstorming Have your students prepared to respond to the ever-changing demands of workplace design, inclusive design principles, and incorporate this competition into your 2022 fall curriculum.
