Project 02 Group Meeting

Discussed about the main functions to include in our outdoor furniture

Sharing our ideas with our design proposals

Figuring out a way to combine our proposals into one furniture

Concept:
Creating an outdoor furniture with the combination of gabion with a bench, a table, greeneries, storage and a shade. We decided to design a furniture that is multi-functional where the community can use it for their daily activities while being at the garden.

Functions:

Allowing people to rest after taking a walk at the garden

Engaging in planting greeneries to purify the air

Enable people to store their bicycles

Allowing people to hide from the rain or the sun

Project 02 Group Meeting

In this meeting, we finally decided to combine all the design proposals from all of us into one outdoor furniture. From this picture, we will add another bench on the other side of the table so that it can fit more people. For the support of the shade, we will not be using gabion but using thicker timber sticks and stuck it into the gabion wall. Danial also suggested to include a storage space where the community can store their gardening tools. For the materials to fill the gabion, we decided to use normal rocks or dry leaves so that it would be more matching with the garden.

Final Design Idea:

Shade - Tayyaba

Table - Evelyn

Vase - Alisa

Bench - Danial & Xin Yu

Storage - Danial's idea

Task distribution:

3D Rendering - Danial

Drawings - Tayyaba & Evelyn

Model - Alisa

Project 02 Physical Discussion

After getting to know the requirements of the furniture, we decided to change the whole concept and design of our proposal.

Requirements:

Size: max 1m*1m/each member

Materials: Gabion + Palet

Modular (can connect all five together into one)

Concept:
According to the theme of our community architecture, which is the combination of architecture and cascade, the first thing that comes to our mind is games. There are a lot of game types, and we decided to pick puzzled games as our concept and used the Tetris kind of puzzle for our furniture design with multi-functional features.

Functions:

Allowing the community to rest when feeling tired

Able to store gardening tools or toys inside the  furniture

Can be used as a dining area

Able to move the chairs easily to play as a puzzle

Not Your Typical Carnival - Day 1

Today is the first day of our first community event, which is called "Not Your Typical" Carnival. I am in charge of the food stall during the 12pm-2pm slot. We've sold out some brownies, french fries and nuggets. I think it is due to the placement of our stalls that is too far away from the main entrance, we don't really have many customers today. Hope our sales will be better tomorrow.

# data[].attributes.body
Finished making this model at Tayyaba's place on 27 Oct (Thu) at night

Not Your Typical Carnival - Day 2

This is the second, and also the last day of our first community event. For today, I'm in charge of the customizing tote bag booth with Jate during the 12pm-2pm slot. Today's sales were surprisingly good. There were only 4 tote bags left when its our turn for duty. Instead of just promoting the tote bags, we also promoted the combos we had at the Secret Admirer booth as well as the other stalls we had.

Had a short tutorial meeting with Mr Amar regarding the design of our outdoor furniture and we had slightly changed our design into the sketch attached above.

# data[].attributes.body
Due to lack of time, the lecturers decided to choose 3 furnitures from all 10 groups and make us build one bench in pairs. Our group was distributed to building the furniture designed by Group 2.

Task Distribution:

Bench 1 - Evelyn & Xin Yu

Bench 2 - Tayyaba & Alisa

Stage - Danial

Diverse Sharing Session

The speakers for today's sharing session are our seniors, where Ang Qiao Ting represents diploma and Fam Yin Yee represents degree. Both their studio projects are extremely impressive, we can definitely see their effort and skills spent inside it. Besides, I've learnt quite a lot of other things from the QnA session where the mentioned about their time management skills and teamworking skills. This is really an amazing event.

# data[].attributes.body
Furniture Built-Up - Day 1

The first day of me building up the modular outdoor furniture with Xin Yu. We didn't really did much today, just cutting and sanding the timbers needed according to the measurements. This is because we need to wait for Group 2 to finish constructing one bench for us to take as an example and reference as their design had some minor changes in the jointings when they were constructing it. One of their modular bench structure was finished just now, hopefully we can get ours done as well by tomorrow or maybe a day after.

# data[].attributes.body
This is like a link made by the team leader to compile designs from every team member so that we can discuss and choose the best layout for the magazine.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a link to where I design the magazine layouts personally before sharing into the team link.

# data[].attributes.body
Furniture Built-Up - Day 2

The second day, using the timbers that we have cut the day before, we finished constructing the structure frame of the furniture. Thus, we're still left with the cover of the bench and the wire mesh for the gabion below. We will definitely finish constructing the whole bench by tomorrow after getting the wire mesh that we need.

# data[].attributes.body
Furniture Built-Up - Day 3

The third day, we screwed in the cover to the top and wrapped the wire mesh around the frame. This took us quite awhile as it is not easy cutting out the piece of wire mesh from the whole big roll, but we still managed to finish it on time. The screwing part is easy, we successfully attached the cover just in time when the make lab is about to close. We're left with the shellac now, hope we can finish it asap tomorrow.

# data[].attributes.body
Furniture Built-Up - Day 4

The last day, we went to buy the shellac and brushes just so we could paint our furniture. We used only a short amount of time to finish this task and we went back home earlier than we thought. Just gonna wait for it to be sent to the site tomorrow morning.

# data[].attributes.body
Final Event Set Up

Benches successfully sent to the site with no damage. We painted another layer of shellac when we arrived the site to prevent it being soaked when raining. After finished painting, I went to help carrying the rocks to the stage area. Then, I went to help covering the stage area with dried leaves to prevent people from directly stepping into the muddy ground. It was raining very heavily after our lunch break, so I stayed indoors and they wanted to have a meeting after attendance. I was chose to join the event team and started meeting with the leaders and members. In the meeting, I was chose to be in charge of the merch stall during tomorrow's event with Jate. When the meeting had ended, I went to help Lim Chew Yao to distribute the t-shirts to our classmates before they go. That's all that I did in today's preparation, hope tomorrow's event will go well, good luck!

Rejuvenate the Kebun

Our final event is finally happening after these few weeks of hardwork, such a great way to end the semester. This event was a huge success, the teenagers from the community had fun playing with our students in the game booths. The performances were hilarious yet interesting. The food provided, which includes kuih, karipap, nasi lemak, milo and nescafe were appetizing as well. Even though one part of our furniture had accidentally been broken for some reason, we still managed to repair it on site. Now that everything has ended, we can focus more on the final submissions of all the subjects, thankful that Mr Amar and Mr Munzir had extended the submission date, so that we can have more time to finish the assignments.

First of all, I am beyond grateful that all the events that we had organized from the beginning to the end of this semester is a huge success and had been held physically (as the last community architecture batch had all these things online). Even though we had some minor changes upon the bench buolt-up part, where we can't make our own bench, I am still glad that we got to make a bench designed by Group 2 with our own hands. It really hits different when we actually sat on our benches to enjoy the performances durning the final event, that really showed that all our hardwork had paid off in the end. This course had taught me how to lead a team with passion and gather all the members to finish given task in order. This is my first time being the leader of a group, especially when I'm not gamiliar with every group member, this had been a huge challenge for me at first, but luckily we gpt along quite well at last, and I guess I have trained myself to improve my leadership skills among this whole semester, which had became my biggest outcome for real. Hopefully everything that I have learnt in this course will benefit me in other courses that I will take in the future. Lastly, I want to thank all the lecturers for giving useful advices regarding our project, and I would also like to thank all my groupmates for giving me all the cooperation throughout this semester, it was nice to meet seniors from different batches and work together with them to complete our task in peace.
