Ice Breaker!
Firsts things first, lets get to know each other...
It was great for the whole team to meet today, coming from all over the world including here in the UK, Thailand, …More
China and Malaysia!
To start off our first day we used a fun website called Backyard.co to play some games together. Pictionairy was especially enjoyable.
We also discussed our strengths, favourite ways of working and things we would like to work on so we can all get the most out of each session! Upcoming tutorials will help students to get to grips with some new ways of working and build on some of these aspirations.

Getting it down on paper!
After brainstorming and discussing the different ideas, everyone started sketching!
Everyone discussed the functionality of the pods, how they could …More
connect together and how the structures would be formed.
We also started thinking about the not so obvious – what can be viewed from the pods, how will the pods accommodate children of different ages , how will they stimulate and aid children in designing and creating?
Have a look at all our sketches! They are absolutely FANTASTIC!!

Our First Output - The Sensory Pod
This pod was designed to encourage young people to play and interact with the space using different senses. The pod is made up of three segments …More
which pulled apart work in a different way to how they are put together. We have a green wall, a climbing net frame and a platform where young people not only play but also can spend some time designing or exploring the built environment!

Our Second Output - The Model Making Pod
This pod was designed to extremely benefit TASC but also to become a space for the use of the Local Community. This retractable pod can …More
be pulled apart and folded together making it super easy to transport to different settings.
When pulled apart, it becomes a functional shelter with several shelves to store model making materials as well as models but also with the smart use of removable surfaces, young people can decide to position them at different heights and design their own seating, tables, shelves or exhibition spaces.

With this pod, we wanted to give young people the freedom to draw and sketch, create and analyse! This pod has removable faces attached to the exciting …More
hexagon frames with Velcro. Each face has a different finish and allows the users to draw in different mediums, making the pod versatile but also the functional pulling apart aspect allows young people to decide what face goes where and how the space is planned out.
