WEEK20-TEST

Time Test


Floor Test


WEEK20-EVIDENCE

As i mentioned before, people will get the message reminder when they start using the card to open the main entrance.
Here will blink the red light to show you get the message today.

For the software support, I thought to try the widget instead of website.because it will stick more users to care and check the info at any moment.The widget adhere to some successful web operator like YAHOO widget.people can download it and install in their own computer.if the building's WiFi system has been set up,this widget should connect with current data which include the pollution and waste of this building and it also has the function to sent and check message like a simple email system.

WEEK19-SCREEN FOCUS

For the pattern now, it divide into two parts which you can see from the core of the cells.The thin dot means a person.and the round dot mean a family or one apartment.

Here is a diagram to show how the elements which effect the emotion of building connect each other.From the right side the energy which include the water and electricity,the surrounding that evaluated by air pollution and noisy volume, the house value and People's activity by send message.

I try to display those elements in the screen,the top stand for energy flow.and the bottom shows both air and noisy pollution.when it is in really tough situation such as waste lots of water ,made impossible noise pollution,the space of massage part will be push in the central.It will limit people to sent message,and force them to care about the building.


These are 3 persona which help me to design the specific status for the common neighbors.
1For the elder maybe just few public message,and he may care much about the environment.
2The new-married couple have been given lots of greets from their friendly neighbors.they are quite happy that the value of the house are growing.
3Party girls normally make noise and they have no sense about the effect that they did for their neighbors.now they are going to know.

WEEK18-WORKSHOP WITH Jack Schultze & Matt Webb

The first three days of this week,we got a very useful opinion from Jack Schultze & Matt Webb , that shows us how to connect design concept with market experience. Due to I already spend lots of energy to figure out the information patterns. It was a tough issue for me to switch the purpose suddenly.but I know my work indeed need that support to be a rounded design.
To reach the aim of this workshop, I re-considered whole work.finally I decide to
fade the website to a simple input and pop out the "emotion" as my central point .eg. the mood of the dweller, also include the potential effect which not just communicate between people to people, it can be the value of the house/water and electric flow...I want to change the normal number to a emotion way to force people's behavior and let them to care the affect that did by themself.

My statement is Show the emotion of building by people’s activity, make people to share and care with the common living environment.
