WHAT and HOW each of us have learned through this process ?

The Failure in Finding the Right Design Solution

When we going to print out the wall stickers, we found out that is only A3 size stickers available in printing shop.
Then we try to print in out in different sizes to test the effect of size of stickers.


The Struggles that We Have Faced


We were feeling quite struggles when we found out the idea of urban gardening was not suitable for this project.
All of the group members are from different hostels and everyone is busy for our own activities and event.

The Teamwork Communication Breakdown

We definitely had arguments as all of us have different opinions and idea.
However, we tried to tolerate and understanding each others.
Finally, we came up with a successful outcome.

The Management of The Team

See Enn good in planning and managing throughout the whole process of our project. She always reminds us when there is any procrastination occurred.
Xin Nin helps a lot by giving us the ideas and suggestions when we are doing the prototype and mock up.
Michelle and me did our parts as well by designing for the poster, logo, stickers and name card. 

The Testing Process and The Choice of Prototype

We have tried to paste the stickers on different types of walls and we chose the orange colour which is almost the same with the research area that we spotted to use as the background of prototype.

The Turning Point of The Project

At first, our idea is urban gardening.
After we found out the idea couldn’t work ( because there is no people to help us take care of the plants ), we change our idea to redecorate the spotted area with stickers and wind chimes.

The Most Memorable Moments in This Project

From preparation for prototype, testing to exhibition.
First try of using machine to make wood punching
Doing the wind chimes together with group members, full of joys and laughs.
Enjoy the moments while doing prototype at home and my mom is my best helper and photographer ever!

Set up for the exhibition, learnt a lot of things from other groups
Thanks to my group members for willing to sacrifice and give their commitments, all the time we spent together will be the most memorable moments for me.

What Is Fun About This Project and Most Importantly

Happiness Project is not like other indoor lecture class that make us feel boring instead we have chance to go around and have fun at Georgetown.
We get to understand more about the design process. Design is not merely expressing the idea and concept, we have to test it whether it is practical or not and do the mock up for it.
It is fun and exciting set up for the exhibition and it is like showing off our new born baby.

The Reason We Think Our Project Can Give Happiness to Georgetown

Wind chime will produce nice sound and it can relax our mind when we chilling at the research area.
The wall stickers will bring happiness especially for the kids as it makes the wall looks fun and joyful. It will brings the kids to their imagination world too.
