How can we best create a living space to suit an individual’s needs?

1. Design situation,

You are entering a cumpetition to create an emergency sheltes You can either create a prototype a
scale model or a digital 3D model You can pick from one of the following three categories

1 Design a shelter for a homeless person who lives ina city. The shelter must be durabile but eary
to carry

2 Design a shelter that can be reproduced easily for many people who have lost thee homes during
hurricane The materials used should the easily accessible and the structure must be easy to put
together

3. Design an affordable tiny house that a small family could use as temporary accommodation

before finding a more permanent tving solution This could be a family that has been displaced
because of something like a house fee or domesta abuse or it could be for a family living in
inadequate shelter, axth as a slum or other nakeshift structure. The house must contain all the
amenities a family would need

if possible, choose a design situation that you have some connection to. This could be a situation
relevant to where you live have inved have travelled or where your family live This might even
give you the potential to design for a real clent, or to speak to those involved with supporting these
vulnerable people for example, local chanty workers)

In this summative assessment, as a designer you are required to develop, plan and create a
creative and customized designs/products that is represented correctly. Remember, you will
need to document each stage of the design and create processes, and to complete this task
you have to make sure you fulfill all the components of your summative assessment.

Command Terms

Command Term Definition

Analyze Break down in order to bring out the essential elements or structure.(To
identify parts and relationships, and to interpret information to reach
conclusions.)

Create To evolve from one’s own thought or imagination, as a work or an

invention.

Demonstrate Make clear by reasoning or evidence, illustrating with examples or

practical application.

Describe Give a detailed account or picture of a situation, event, pattern or

process.

Develop To improve incrementally, elaborate or expand in detail. Evolve to a

more advanced or effective state.

Evaluate Make an appraisal by weighing up the strengths and limitations.

Explain Give a detailed account including reasons or causes. (See also “Justify”.)

Identify Provide an answer from a number of possibilities. Recognize and state

briefly a distinguishing fact or feature.

Justify Give valid reasons or evidence to support an answer or conclusion. (See

also “Explain”.)

List Give a sequence of brief answers with no explanation.

Outline Give a brief account or summary.

Present Offer for display, observation, examination or consideration.

State Give a specific name, value or other brief answer without explanation or
calculation.
 G Your goal is to conduct thorough research to generate innovative design ideas for a
Protype representing a functional living space for homeless individuals.

R Your role is that of a Social Innovator and Researcher, diving deep into homelessness issues
to develop creative design solutions.

A Your audience consists of fellow students, teachers, and school administrators interested in
socially impactful design solutions and homelessness awareness.

S You find yourself in a situation where You're part of a community initiative striving to
reimagine living conditions for the homeless through research-based innovation.

P the product is customized design that:

Present a researched proposal with sketches and preliminary designs showcasing your
innovative ideas for the Prototype.

This stands for standards and criteria for success.

Your work will be judged by Criterion A and B.

 Criterion B: Developing Ideas

STRAND I.Develop design specifications, which clearly states the success criteria for the design of
home/shelter for homeless people.

ACTIVITY: Design specifications

ATL

■Organization skills: Plan strategies and take action to achieve personal and academic goals

Now that you have your initial idea, it is time to commit that idea to your design specifications! Remember, these act as both a
guide to help you to design, but also as a tool for measuring the success of your final product.

Your specifications should be SMART - specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, timely. SMART can apply to your individual
specifications or to the overall project. For example, you might look at the overall project and say 'I will make the complete
shelter by October 20th' - this is specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timely.

Some of your individual specifications may not include something about timeliness, as it will be included in the project as a
whole. For example, 'My shelter will be green' does not cover time, but it will be assumed that this will be done when the whole
product is complete.

Table 1.1 gives an example of SMART specifications for a ski jacket.

Now make a copy of this table, with the same headings, but use it for your own specifications.

Specification Reason Testing Method SMART?

The jacket will be made of So the user does not get wet Test the material outside SMAR(timely does not
waterproof material. in rain or snow when it rains need to be mentioned
here)
STRANDII.Develop a range of feasible design ideas, which can be correctly interpreted by
others.
Annotate each design idea to explain their design features i.e. size,length,width,2D and3D
designs.
Evaluate each design and include Environment, Size,Safety,Target audience,
Function,Aesthetic ,cost ,material and manufacturer.

Design Idea 1:
Design 2:
Strand III- Present the final chosen design and justify its selection.

Choosing your final design: Create a survey or a list of questions to help you choose your best design. Simply create
questions that will help others to judge the quality of each design idea. Ask two classmates, friends or family members
to help you identify the best idea.

Rate how well the design fulfills each question/areas/specification point. Use a scale from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest).
Make sure to combine the total score of each design to see which one comes out on top!

Write Survey List questions (1-6) and for each question how many responses you got.Based on
responses select the design and answer the following questions:

Which design did I use?

Relating this design to my problem?

Relating this design to my rating system

Relating this design to my design specification

b. Process/es to be Conducted

Bibliography (MLA format) (Cite your sources)

Criterion B: Developing Ideas Achievement Level: /8
