Day 10. Thank you.

Today was the final push! The room has been completed so the day was spent compiling all the work completed over the two weeks into a document and later submitted.

To conclude the project, we would like to give a big thank to all the undergraduate students that committed to the vision we had despite have additional deadlines and commitments. It’s been great to see you develop new skills, confidence and get hands on with turning concepts into physical outputs. We hope that the skills learnt will help you with your future studies.

The fifth years are happy with the outcome and hope you’ve enjoyed yourselves during MSAlive. Please feel free to contact any of us in the future and don’t be a stranger!

We’d also like to thank Byyshe and Maria at Niamos for being so welcoming and giving us the freedom to explore and install our creative ideas.

Day 9- Assembly on Site

Day nine was the day of assembly on site. We started the morning running through the extra pieces of content needed for the document. Document sections were split between students to be completed for Friday.
After lunch we purchased nails and other d.i.y equipment from the shops before heading to the site. We met with the builder who provided the tools needed to complete the works.
They curtains were hung, fabric panel attached the wall, draft excluders in place, window sealed, and the green wall was nailed into place. The students worked as a team to help each other bring the room to life.
By the end of the day the designs that had been sketched two weeks ago had been put in place. Feedback from the students was that it was great to do something from concept to completion and learn new skills in the process. A successful day!

Day 8 - Making 2

We made another trip to NIAMOS to inspect our showroom and rearrange our exhibition for our client. It was made apparent that the budget required to do all the installations was outside of the client’s scope, so at the last minute the team had to make some adjustments. Luckily, we had the foresight to procure and source as much material for free, but we sourced some material from NIAMOS itself and from an unexpected source. For the green wall, it became apparent most of the expensive cost would be the planting. However, outside the Chatham Building, there’s some planting and shrubs being thrown away. The groundskeepers kindly let us have as much we could and we arranged it on to the crate as a pseudo showpiece for the client. We provided it in the document to the client about how they could actually build it if they were inclined in the future.

Overall, it was a successful and productive day.

Concluding the project, we would like to express our gratitude to the BA students who have committed their time to produce all the required outputs, despite being busy with submissions and exhibition preparations. It was inspiring to see you guys eager to learn and try new things, and we hope that the skill-sharing sessions would help your future studies.

The fifth years are extremely proud of the work and effort you guys have put in, and we hope that you guys are proud of your work too. All of us thoroughly enjoyed the experience of MSAlive, thus we thank you for the exciting two weeks. On another note, don't be a stranger!

We would like to take this opportunity to give thanks to our collaborators, especially Abigail for trusting us with the project. We are extremely thankful for the opportunity to learn and work alongside our collaborators who are experienced in these kinds of events. Additionally, we would also like to thank Julie, not only for making time to attend our final day of MSAlive, but also for guiding us throughout the whole planning process. Thank you for reassuring us that not all plans are set in stone, thus allowing us to improve.

DAY 10 // Project handover

Once the presentation and feedback sessions are over, we officially handed over the project to our collaborators.

On a more exciting note, with the help of Abigail and Julie, we managed to display our models and instruction booklets to the public! The items were placed at a windowsill at Station South’s café. We are thrilled that the public could see the ideas; and should there be a discussion in the future regarding the production of the furniture, we hope that these ideas would inspire them in any possible way.

DAY 10 // Feedback and reflections

After the presentation, we had a discourse with Abigail, Mark and our tutor Julie, on the overall process and output.

We discussed on the cost, materials and sustainability aspects of the project. With our collaborator being a community interest company, they had to secure their own funding and depend on volunteers for projects – an aspect that we should have highlighted during the process of designing.

Regarding the two-week event: reflecting on the outputs, if we were able to do things differently, we would have steered the BA students more toward a design that better reflects our collaborator’s nature of work. Cost and in-depth material study exercise would also work as supplementary information to the instruction manual. More aspects of sustainability would also be introduced, not just of the materials, but also in the adaptability and use of seatings.

Nevertheless, Upcycle has been a fruitful experience for both the participants and the collaborators.

Final Presentation!

We were finally able to present our bio and design proposal to Debi and the Youth House Co-op (YHC) team. It was wonderful to see our group's work come together into a 30 page pre-planning style document for the YHC to build on in the future, and help them to develop their company information and story. The final proposal was met with tears of joy, which made us all feel like the hard work was really worth it to receive such an amazing reaction.

Debi responded to the presentation, saying:

‘Everything in that building you can trace back to us, and the reasons we want and need this project’.

She shared how valuable it was to have a project built from their experiences, and to feel heard and understood. For all of us, we are very proud of this project and the final outcome, and the important contribution it has made to Debi and the YHC team.

We began the day with fixing the red vinyl covering, we completed it by nailing the parts that were folded by the wind. We then attached the information posters, protest posters and photographs around the exhibition. After the exhibition was ready! we opened the exhibition to the public and spoke to the local community, making them aware of what we were doing and how it affects Ryebank fields. We also spoke to Paul Dobraszczyk an architectural writer and researcher who came to see the exhibition. We ended the day by taking pictures as a Group and of the exhibition

DAY 9 ACTIVITY!

We began the day by assembling one of the last walls, we had to extend the wall by using spare pieces of wood. We then began constructing the roof frame by adding the beams on either wall, after we added the central beams and secured them. The other half of the group worked on securing the partition walls to the exhibition. Some of the group also collected flowers to add to the allotment plots and willow arch. After the frame was secure we placed the corrugated plastic sheets as the lightweight roof on either side of the walls. As we did not have any corrugated plastic left we used a red vinyl sheet to cover the back centre of the exhibition to provide more covering. We then cleared the site ready for the exhibition

The project has now been passed over to the MUD team, who will submit for planning once they have had a final review of the design and looked into funding options.

The BA1 and BA2 team worked towards preparing the images for the publication: putting the finishing touches in and detailing them out. The year 5 students setup up the layout for the publication, and worked on the final deliverables. The MSA Live Session ended with joyous and gregarious goodbyes!
