Project Overview: the project aim is to create an organised system and/or product for planning “Gün” events, managing food responsibilities, and facilitating easy financial contributions (cash, gold, etc.) for the “Gün” component. Additionally, the project will explore the possibility of cross-support between different “Gün” groups to increase participation and engagement. Our proposal: to organize a fun yet waste-free event, we have come up with two proposals: a board game that will help organize the event and entertain the guests during it, and a box for each participant so that everyone can take home any leftover food, ensuring that it doesn't go to waste. Gün game Objective: making the Gün a moment of sharing and fun, highlighting the contribution of each participant through recipes, anecdotes, and convivial activities.Materials Needed -Role Cards (one for each participant)- Menu Cards (with Turkish dishes and optional culinary challenges)- Extra Activity Cards (conversation questions, riddles, and light games) - Recipe Sheet (to write and share your creations) - Symbolic Prizes (such as best dessert, most original dish, etc.)Preparing the Game(Meeting before the GÜN)1. Distribute Role CardsEach participant draws a role card representing their special contribution during the event. Examples of roles: - Organizer: coordinates the meeting and ensures everything runs smoothly. - Tradition Expert: shares stories or interesting facts about Turkish culture and traditional dishes. - Narrator: introduces games, questions, and conversations to keep the atmosphere lively. - Gün Photographer: captures the best moments with photos or videos.2. Distribute Menu CardsEach participant draws a menu card with instructions for a dish to prepare. Each card includes: - Dish name (e.g., baklava, mercimek çorbası). - An optional challenge, such as: . “Tell a story related to this dish.” . “Personalize the recipe with your own touch.” 3. Prepare Extra Activity Cards Extra activity cards are designed to add interactive moments, such as: - “Share a memory related to cooking.” - “Describe your favorite secret ingredient.” 4. Recipe Sheet Provide a sheet to collect and write down the shared recipes, which will be distributed to participants as a memento of the event.Game PlayStarting the GÜN - The organizer introduces the event, explains the schedule, and presents the roles. - Each participant introduces their role and shows the dish they’ve prepared, sharing any personal stories or details related to the recipe.Sharing and Conversation - During the meal, participants talk about their recipes and explain the preparation steps. - The Tradition Expert and the Narrator propose challenges and questions from the extra activity cards to keep the conversation flowing.Symbolic Award Ceremony - At the end of the meal, all participants discuss and choose categories to reward special contributions, such as: . Best dessert . Most original dish . Most interesting story related to a recipe - The prizes are symbolic and can include small tokens like a traditional spice, a kitchen decoration, or a Turkish sweet.Benefits of the New Format - Collaboration: the absence of competition fosters an atmosphere of sharing and harmony. - Recipes and Stories: recipes take center stage, with space…

Date: 27 November 2024 19.00-20.00 (GMT +1.00) Participants: Leonardo Marchetta, Federico Guadagno, Cristiana Cacace, Claudia Tramici, Ida Testa, Berk Deniz, Mehmet Emin, Zeynep Şebnem. As clients: We asked them to create a printable version of the flyer outlining the workshop program on gardening between elderly and students We asked them to be more specific about what will be planted during the gardening activity We asked them to create a visual identity (a logo) for the gardening activity We asked them to illustrate all the workshop programs in addition to the gardening one They had some questions about the nursing homes for the elderly, the roles of local governments, how these work and if these are active only in big cities or in rural areas too They asked about the elderly daily life, where they go, what activities they do in the nursing homes, to understand how they can reach them  They clarified some questions like: what are the school hours, when students go and leave, when the lessons are, etc. As designers: They gave us some critics about the Gün game idea about the role cards and we clarified these. They asked us a printable version of cards to send to them via pdf There were some problems with the role cards: these should be better designed because some roles are already determined by the event, like the Gün host is the master chef and he prepares the main foods, so there shouldn't be a "head chef" card or a "main foods" card.

Date: 12 November 2024 18.00-19.00 (GMT +1.00) Participants: Leonardo Marchetta, Berk Deniz, Mehmet Emin, Zeynep Şebnem Subject: Discussing initial ideas and comments about ideas. As clients: We looked at their proposals, and we liked "Local Workshop: From Grandparents to the Young" and "Ghost Writers to Conserve Napoli Culture" For the "Local Workshop" idea, we really appreciated the fact that the elderly could engage in activities with young people in such a way as to pass down their experiences For the "Ghost Writers" idea, we particularly liked the collection "Voices of Napoli", so that the elderly could share their stories and carry forward Neapolitan culture At the end, we had agreed to arrange another video call since they had questions and wanted to delve deeper into Neapolitan culture, and we were waiting for a message from them to schedule it. On November 13, during the next lesson with our professor, we decided to change our approach: she suggested us that we take three of their ideas ("Elderly in Kindergarten", "Local Workshop" and "Garden of Generations") and merge them into a single topic. To assist them in their work and clarify our proposal, we prepared a document (attached below) that we shared with them in our WhatsApp group at 11:22 AM on the same date. In the end, we did not receive any response regarding this. Documento senza titolo copiaDownload I did not upload this document here on the blog because, as I wrote to them privately, I was waiting for their response first. As designers: For the “Gün Game” idea, they suggested us to:-Avoid competition because older people can be sensitive. But for the reward, there can be category awards like best dessert, best soup, etc.-At gün, people like to talk about their recipes, and the game can cover these recipe-sharing activities For the Box Idea: -At the end of Gün (sometimes even before, the host prepares food for takeaway), people are taking some of the foods to their homes for their families. This box idea meets this situation well. -They need answers to questions about how they get food and who gets food.

Checking list team ZigzagDownload

Our team name is Zig Zag, so our logo is inspired by it.We chose Zig Zag because it is an international onomatopoeic sound, so it is recognizable and understandable in every language.Also, Zig Zag represents a non-linear path like the communication and design world is.The "zigzag" term can be referred to various things, according to the context. There are some possible interpretations:• "Movement": a journey or a movement that alternates between opposite directions, creating sharp angles;• "Design and Fashion": a decorative pattern characterized by lines that alternate between sharp angles, often used in textiles, wallpaper or works of art;• "Sewing technique": a zigzag stitch used to trim fabric edges or create decorative effects;• "Game or Sport": it can be referred to a type of exercise or training, like a zigzag path between cones in a run;• "Analogy": it can be used to describe a process or a thought that doesn't follow a straight line, but it moves through different directions.The zipper represents an opening to a new way of thinking, the way out from the schemes. So the zigzag path leads to innovative solutions.
