Third Week: Initial Problem Identification and Consultation (2024 October 7th – 13th)
Action Strategy:
1. In-depth analysis of challenges: Systematically identify the obstacles and difficulties encountered in conducting eight 45-minute conversations between the elderly and children in the same space, including but not limited to communication barriers, psychological adaptability, and physical environment comfort.
2. International wisdom absorption: Consult with relevant research experts in Norway to gain insights and recommendations on the above issues, utilizing international perspectives to enrich the research foundation.
Fourth Week: Deepened Research and Problem Focusing (2024 October 14th – 20th)
Action Deepening:
1.Based on the feedback from Norwegian experts, refine the research framework, specifying the specific dimensions of the investigation, such as spatial layout, interaction forms, and psychological environment construction.
2. Organize the research findings and compile a comprehensive document, providing a more precise and targeted question list to the Norwegian research team to facilitate deeper collaboration and exchange.
Fifth Week: Direction Concentration and Theme Determination (2024 October 21st – 27th)
Decision Making:
1.Through a comprehensive analysis of the research data and group discussions in the first two weeks, distill several potential design directions and themes.
2.Hold a final discussion with the Norwegian research team to combine both teams’ wisdom and jointly determine the core design direction and theme for the project, laying a solid foundation for subsequent work.
Sixth Week: Preliminary Scheme Design (2024 October 28th – November 3rd)
Creative Thinking:
1.For the designated design directions, conceptualize and draw three sketch scheme designs, elaborating on the user value, design concept, and implementation path of each scheme.
2.In-depth discussions with the Norway research team on the feasibility of the solution, identifying potential problems and providing a basis for subsequent iterations.
Week 7: Design refinement & optimization (2024 Nov 4th – 10th)
Problem-solving & refinement:
1.Propose specific solutions to the issues raised in the previous round of discussions, and further refine and perfect the design scheme.
2.Ensure that the design achieves optimal performance in terms of functionality, aesthetics, and user experience.
Week 8: Final design approval (2024 Nov 11th – 17th)
Result solidification:
1.Finalize the design scheme and complete its electronic presentation, including design drawings, model rendering, etc.
2.Ensure that the design scheme meets both practical needs and high levels of feasibility and innovation.
Week 9: Model making (if needed) (2024 Nov 18th – 25th)
Physical representation:
1.Based on the design scheme, create necessary physical models or scenarios to more intuitively display the design concept and effects.
2.Ensure that the model is highly consistent with the design scheme, providing strong support for subsequent demonstrations and evaluations.
Week 10: Wrap-up & presentation of results (2024 Nov 25th – Dec 1st)
Storyboard creation & effect display:
1.Create detailed storyboards to record the design process from concept to implementation, showcasing the design’s logicality and consistency.
2.Complete the shooting and post-production of the storyboard to ensure that the final results can vividly and accurately convey the design concept and effects.
Week 12: Project presentation (2024 Dec 3rd)
Result display & feedback collection:
1.Host a project presentation to showcase the final design results, including the design scheme, model (if any), and storyboard.
2.Collect feedback, providing valuable references and insights for subsequent research and practice.
The above plan aims to ensure that the project can be completed efficiently and of high quality through a systematic research, design, and presentation process, while promoting academic exchange and cooperation among international parties.
