MINOR - PROJECT 2 RE-USE WORKSHOP

This is a big project!
It's a group work.
We need to use recycled material to build a book rack which can fit 100 books.
Vijay, Samaha, Hadis and I are in one group.

This is the first prototype we did.
The design doesn't work.
The rack is shaky and it is too bulky!
OH my gosh~
There is always problems between the design we sketch on a paper and when we create the real one!

But never mind, problems are always with solution.
We just have to FIND it!
Ha!
Here we goes~
A new design!
We cut away half of our design and make it a durable and less bulky book rack.






The design is a 2-in-1 book rack which not just a book rack but user can interact with the furniture.
There is a seat next to the rack.
User can lean on the book rack as back rest.
There is a lighting device hiding in a Tyre.
User can read with efficient lighting.

Our construction method is quite tough which our lecturer asked a question
"If the users want to buy and fixed it themselves, is it possible?"
It's totally impossible!
The connection between tyres are really tough.
But I am happy with the process~
I enjoy building this prototype with my group mates!
We are just so awesome!
Haha~

  1. Wa... You guys are so talented. Using all the recycle stuff to build a book rack.
    But I think you guys can put some more afford on the outlook, seem like little bit unsafe.
    Just my little comment.
