Day 14 : Group Plan


We were discussing our plan of going to our groupmate's house (Jiela's) to finish most of our artefact since the deadline's coming up already

Day 13 : Cutting List

Working Drawing


It doesn't look like the sketch in Plan B because we kind of changed the design (the adjustable design) but the concept is still the same and we think it's better and easier this way.

Day 12 : Working Drawing and Start of Cutting the Metal


Brainstorming Design Ideas and Preferred Option

Brainstorming Design Ideas

Preferred Option : 

We would actually like to do both if we can but the chair is more of our priority because our client's problem focuses more on the position while gardening. This artefact would definitely meet more of our clients needs.
 

Day 11 : Planning What Kinds of Metal to Use

We are also testing on how to use them for the artefact. We got different kinds of metals and tried to put them together  to come up with an idea for our chair's design.

Our Investigation (Research)

We like the design of this invention
 because it has several functions (multi-purpose)
 but is a simple design


This one is kind of mainstream but what we 
 like about it is that it's visible that the user
 will be much comfortable when sat on it


The design of this one is likeable because it
 has a lot of space for whatever the user will
 put and pretty accessible



This design may be small but you can see that
 it is very usable for gardening enthusiasts 
 since they need low-levelled and mobile chairs


Day 10 : Investigation (Research) pt. 2


Day 9 : Investigation (Research)




Evaluation Criteria

Day 8 : Brainstorming and Evaluation Criteria


The pictures inside the small circles show the objects we brainstormed on for the adjusting design on our Gardener's Chair.

The first and third photo inside the big circles show that we are brainstorming measurements for the maximum and minimum height of our adjustable chair.

While the second picture inside the big circles show us conceptualizing our Evaluation Criteria.
