This time we decided to use more reliable materials for our installation, so it would be easier to give it a professional look. So far we are planning to use wood for outer part and acrylic plastic for inner part. The lower part of our installation we are planing to make from hard wood provided... Continue Reading →
Finishing touches to the new prototype
After Alexandra made a new sketches and build the model in maya to visualize our concept I wasn't completely happy with the end result. There still was something what bothered me and seemed out of the place. So I took a file and decided to experiment and see what is possible to do. First I... Continue Reading →
New customer journey
One of my tasks was to update customer journey. From feedback two main changes should have been done is layout, because it was hard to read and it was missing the main goal. I started from clearing up our main goal: "To show that Enschede is a musical city and demonstrate that everyone can find... Continue Reading →
User journey map
Totally forget to write blog post about our try to make a user journey map, so here we go. Alexandra and I took the assignment to make a user journey map for the design document. We were not sure how to properly make it, so we made a small research. In delft design book there... Continue Reading →
And prototype, again
I know, I know, it may seems that the only thing we are doing is a prototypes, but for previous installation we really needed to test it in order to know if we would be able to build it in actual size. Soooo, after we (building team) explained the situation with another installation they agreed... Continue Reading →
New sketches
As you know from the previous post we tested the building of a small prototype of our sketches and it didn't went that well, so we needed to think fast what we can do we that. Later that day I started looking for more inspiration on how what kind of shapes we can easily build.... Continue Reading →
Testing the materials
When we got the direction in which we should move, we went for the materials straight away. We got a styrofoam and a woodglue, but we couldn't find a kaasdoek so replaced the it with bandage roll. First thing we needed to build the shape from the styrofoam. We cut it into small squares of 3... Continue Reading →
Searching for materials
We build our prototype so now we had a clear image how it should look like and we were able to research on building options and materials. There were few possible building options from the wood to make it curvy shape. One is to stack wood plates one on another, and second option is almost... Continue Reading →
Design plan / construction drawings
In order to finish the design document, we needed a construction drawing, but the problem with this now that we know only estimate sizes, and nothing specific. So, I decided for now just make a rough sketch of the possible measurements of the one of the objects. At the second sprint we are planning to build a proper... Continue Reading →
Building the prototype
As the sketches were approved, we, the builders team started working on the prototype.We decided to construct a smaller version of the installation, our measurements being: 10cm = 1m (in real life). To see the estimate scale of installation for materials we decided to go cheap and use cardboard. Firstly we started building the prototype... Continue Reading →
