Design Update

Above are imagves of the desgn idea made out of paper. The design looks brilliant for a table and the ergonom. My next step would be to choose a theme and procceed to amend the design and create it so it assocciates with the theme.

Improvements

The improvement the design needs is to make the knee gap large in term of the height and width. This will make the table more confortable for the user to sit beside.

Art Movements

Memphis art movement is about the use of different bright colours with wierd shapes. For example one of the pictures above is a sofa which seems like it is cut in half. The use of cushions make it comfortable but the foot is a large circle. This is not normal for sofas and having a foot as a large circle is a weird shape, but still creative.

Pop Art Movement started in mid-1950s and in the late 1950s in United States. It involves use of bright and vibrant  colours. It is not only popular for furniture but clothing.

After reviewing both of the art movements, i have decided to do pop art for my design. This is because i like the energetic colours and want to have a image of a actor on my design.

Design Idea

This is my design idea for the wooden furniture. This is first design that i would create on the Coral Draw considering the ergnome measurments. This is made out of cardboard used craft knive and metal ruler at the top of a cutting mat to prevent damage to table. The metal ruler is important for cutting because it is designed to prevent cutting fingers. The main point of this project is to make the design work using slots and nothing else. I have done this because this design can be rbiuld using the slots provided. 

Above are the measurements of my design idea. I have used Coral Draw to design my final idea. As you can see, i have measired the lengths and heights, so it fits the ergonom. In the Ergonom post, i have worked out the meaurments needed to suit the ergonom so it can fit the furniture comfortably. The first two images are the for the sides of the table, which decide the height of the table. This table would be used for the both reseaons of when the person is standing up and sitting down on a chair.  I will be designign a chair to suit the table above. The half- rectagualr hole in the bottom to designs are for the knees of the ergonome. The knees of theergonome could be in the holes while sitting on a chair. 

After talking to th teacher about the design, a problem occured. It was related to the two lond sides of the design and the two pieaces (bottom on the right). The problem was that after sloting together the pieces, it wont be secure and would move around. Therefore as you can see, the two pieces ( on bottom right) have two slots. This would make the table stable. 

Ergonomics

This is the Ergonome measurments and i have done it by deviding the average person measurments by 5. This is because i was told by the teacher that the Ergonome is the size of a person devided by 5. I would use this for the designs that i will be creating because it will make the design suitable for the ergonome given.
