First Generation Design
I have always been interested in modular design throughout the project. Then after some exploration and case study, I have my first generation sketch model. It is a cube made of bamboo. The bamboo material is more environmentally friendly, and the weight of the box combined with bamboo strips like this is also lighter. The boxes can be connected by buckles, and the boxes can be combined into a bar, seat, table, display cabinet and stage. It can be easily moved during the day and night to meet the needs of temporary activities. But in the test of different seats in the class, I found this is not suitable for human body structure.
Second Edition Design
This is my second-generation design. Its design adds more comfort.Its exterior material is environmentally friendly woven fabric, and it is filled with elastic sponge. The height of the chair can be raised and lowered. The height of the chair is adjusted by pneumatic rod technology, which can be adjusted manually by people
It can be used as a holiday lounge during the day. People can put the chairs together, lie on them, or sit on them. At night, it can be separated as individual chairs, where people can sit to listen to lectures or watch movies. But this version is designed more like a set of furniture and doesn't run through the space.
Third Revision Design
I made the third revision of the design. This design is composed of two parts spliced into a cube shape, and then they can be combined into a table. Each individual part can be a seat. The spliced cubes can be transformed into stages, bars, and display walls. It is made of acrylic and has three colors of red, yellow and blue. When the entire space becomes a bar at night, the light can reflect the sense of atmosphere even more through acrylic.
People can buy seats with their favorite Harff show posters, and someone can customize the printed posters they like. Harff’s logo and year are printed on each module. This is more like a festival souvenir. People can buy it take home and use it to reduce waste. And increase the two purchase methods of auction and purchase restriction. This can more stimulate people’s desire to buy.
