1st Group Work : Furniture Design

Why hellooo there. I'm sorry to say that i procrastinated posting this but it's the holidays D: and I always feel lazy during the holidays. Not a good thing for a designer in the making i would say... I have got to change that. Soon. >_> I realize I always seem to get off topic... *ahem*

So on 14th August, Tuesday, our PoD lecturer Miss Lisa showed us a slide of repurposed furniture made by designers (absolutely awesome furnitures if u ask me ;D). After that we were asked to gather into groups of 6 to work on designing repurposed furniture- in other words, creating a usable and environmentally friendly piece of furniture. The group I joined consisted of my friends Zu, Lisa, Aina, Priya, and a new friend, K.

And we went to work! Cracking our heads thinking of ideas that would seem useful and crazy at the same time. We were encouraged to use recycled materials, scraps and old junk, and also to spend as little or if possible, no money at all on this project. After coming up with many interesting ideas we decided to go with an environment friendly, multipurpose, recycled old television-turned bookshelf.

After this we have to start working on making our idea a reality... I can't wait :D
I hope it turns out alright
