======Esther and Jae's Piece to Peace Bench ====== Create a peaceful public space for busy life-styled San Francisco community ==== Design Concept ==== * **Panelized Wood** easily make variations of design by changing the properties of one wood panel * **Individualized Seat** {{:e_j:design_concept.jpg|}} ==== Description of design drivers / goals ==== * **Goal 1** - Provide flexible design for different site condition * **Goal 2** - Provide flexible design for different user types * **Goal 3** - Provide comfortable and peaceful public space ==== Logic diagram ==== {{:e_j:logic_diagram.jpg|}} ==== CAD models ==== {{:e_j:assignment3_peacebench_final.catpart|}} ==== Parametric variations: Images ==== {{:e_j:configuration-sidewalk-width.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_occupancy_level.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_temperature.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_person_age.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_person_height.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuarion_person_weight.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_waiting_time.jpg|}} {{:e_j:configuration_curve_radius.jpg|}} ==== Design Strength ==== * Environmental friendly design (material) * Flexible design change * Provide human comfort * User oriented design * Peace bench Provide comfortable and peaceful environment to busy city life-styled community ==== Limitation ==== * Could not apply the user types on each chair differently (circular pattern of one panel) * There are some unrealistic design configuration to emphasize parametric concept (ex. waiting time) ==== Lessons learned ==== * **Strength of parametric design** Even though the first design process is complicated, the one design can simply produce a lot of different designs for different users and different environment * **Dependency of each part is important when modify the model** One part can break the other part’s parametric relationship if the part is dependent on the others * **If your component contains more than one part, create each part separately and assemble.** It would give more ways to put relationship between parts and also you can apply different material on each part * **Save file every 5min!** (we have lost 4hour-work) ~~DISCUSSION~~
