Maybe take the palace mobiles outside to schools and Quad in Derby.

Looked into finding transparent Lego bricks as we talked about using them as a material. It proved hard to find any that we wanted, so I then decided to look at non branded bricks. But again they proved hard to find. So in conclusion I think that we should look into different materials.

# data[].attributes.body
This is just a general look into different shapes and styles of hanging mobiles

# data[].attributes.body
Our final idea is to have multiple towers in the room, each designed a little differently to create varied inspirational spaces within one room. Each tower will be big enough to surround a small circular table, with 2-4 chairs, with drawing supplies on each table.

The public would come into the room, look around at the abstract shapes created by the towers themselves, and on the walls by the reflected and refracted light, and be able to create abstract drawing works without feeling pressure to draw a recognisable item, a giraffe for example. They'll be able to experiment with colour and shapes, and gain confidence from this experimentation that they can take home with them and build upon.

Drawings the public create will be pegged to the bottom of the hanging strands on each tower, creating multiple small showcases of their work within the space.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to go as a group to the museum to see the space we actually have to work with, what size and shape it is, etc, so we can effectively figure things out with full knowledge of where it would be if we created it fully.

~ Since our ideas differ, perhaps creating multiple mobiles to form one big palace, with each mobile representing one of the towers, and some sort of passageway/link between the towers?
~ Need to figure out the practicalities. Will they stand or sit in it? For how long? What exactly will they do there? etc.
~ Make a prototype and test it on people outside of the brief. Get general outsider opinions on how it works, what its for etc. See if it functions how we want it to, or if we need to alter the idea to achieve our intended outcome.

# data[].attributes.body
how about each of us making separate palace turrets (maybe 3 or 4 each) and construct them together, via a bridge. Make a mock up and test them out with people that are outside of the brief. Think about how it is going to inspire people

# data[].attributes.body
Then why have thinner fonts if the potential for finicky-ness in the design could happen? :/

I also like the Bauhaus one too, the rounded edges make it seem softer and considers the "thought" element of our design.

# data[].attributes.body
I do quite like Broadway, but I'm not sure how we could do the thinner elements well for this. Broadway is a consistent width, and would potentially be easier to create. I think this needs more consideration over this next week

# data[].attributes.body
Personally i'm a fan of the Bauhaus font :)

# data[].attributes.body
Personally, I really like the Boardway font. :)

# data[].attributes.body
When we can make a 3D prototype we can experiment with each of these ideas and see which works best :)

# data[].attributes.body
In this instance I think the design will be too busy if we had lots of different palace designs.. And may come off a bit intimidating to the target audience.

Sectioned out palace parts would work if the designs were maybe a couple of turrets and some of the stone fencing. (I have no idea on the names.) It wouldn't potentially need a door/drawbridge per say in that regard.

# data[].attributes.body
If we make things appropriately sized, and separated from each other, having different palace designs won't make it too busy. Its just hard to show that on a 2D drawing! It will be easier to see on a 3D prototype, where we can work out spacing etc.

The concept of using the same design to make one complete palace in total doesnt really work, as we have 10/11 pieces, which is far too many to make one palace. Though a good thought, I don't think that really works for this project on a whole. Its more important for this brief to help the public gain creative inspiration than it is to create a perfect palace.

# data[].attributes.body
The concept of different palaces, while good, is not a great idea as it may come across a bit busy and people might not know what to look at per say, whilst sections of a palace make for an overall "bigger picture" piece. 'Cause we already have words and stuff in it already as a design idea.

# data[].attributes.body
It would probably be better to have varied palace designs in the mobile. This will show much variation in design concepts and ideas, and give more inspiration for the public to work from. As well as the different materials, different palaces would help with this.

# data[].attributes.body
Maybe shortening the length of string/rope/fish line/etc so that it's shoulder length?
Potentially for people to step under the mobile. :)

# data[].attributes.body
Easier to see drawing, showing the layers etc.

# data[].attributes.body
If budget isn't an issue, do we need to use recycled materials? Perhaps using everyday recycled things will help show the general public that you don't need fancy equipment or skill etc to create something? Would recycled materials illustrate our point better than bought materials?

# data[].attributes.body
Look into different styles of hanging mobiles and the materials that are used in their creation

# data[].attributes.body
Research into palaces and what they would look like in their given materials.

# data[].attributes.body
Include some simple drawings of our own to start the drawing inspiration for visitors

# data[].attributes.body
Think about colour scheme?

# data[].attributes.body
Add a second type layer under the palaces: 'INSPIRATION'.

Solves the Sherlock concept, and explains the purpose of the mobile.

Use a different typeface for each letter in the word 'INSPIRATION', to illustrate the varied ideas etc that can come from the mind palace :)

# data[].attributes.body
Digital elements?

# data[].attributes.body
Need to include something that explains to anyone coming to see it what its purpose is, beyond a pretty shiny thing! xD

MIND - quite blocky font. perhaps something like Rockwell?

PALACE - Scripty style font, elegant

# data[].attributes.body
10 palaces:
3x thick acetate
3x clear glass (broken)
3x clear lego
1x pyrex - a bit fancier?

Letters 'MIND PALACE':
clear coloured sweet wrappers on acetate
