ANALYSIS OF PROBLEM:

SUMMARY: I need to research the Boarding House including customer, environment and requirements as my product will be place in the Boarding House. As well analysing existing products, packaging and bulbs/fixtures, I will plan a design strategy using inspiration from movements/designers. The design will result in needing to decide if it's task or ambient and where it will be located in the

This is ambient ceiling lamp also from IKEA. The product’s price is from the solar panels used as they can be expensive but appeal to customers as they last for longer. RESEARCH TASKS: CLIENT INTERVIEWS: To interview the buyer and end user - a teacher and student from the Boarding House - to establish their needs such as budget and practicality. This is important as it will develop my design to help satisfy both customers. Also the investigation of the environment used by the student for the lighting will aid the design. EXISTING PRODUCTS: To evaluate/analyze existing products being manufactured and sold to the public. This will help to provide important features needed or elements that need to be considered. a design strategy for the subsequent planning of my lamp. This will help when choosing the style and aesthetics for the lamp. IMPORTANT SIZES: To attain the critical sizes of specific components that are necessary for the lamp. Also the minimum and maximum

significant.

EXAMPLES OF PRODUCTS: Pictured here is a designer table lamp from Heal’s, a British furniture store chain. It has a very attractive sleek, modern design and has been designed/made with expertise resulting in its expensive price. LOCATION: The product will be used in School Boarding House which is located in Brunei. It will be used on, either, a bedside table or the study desk as task lighting. Also in the Houses, there's communal areas that need some DESIGN MOVEMENTS: To examine designers/movements to help begin ambient lighting to be designed for socialising/relaxing. There is also the lighting for outside and around the Boarding House for dimensions of the actual lamp and the space it could take up are when it’s dark.

PROBLEM Our school boarding house has many boarding students attending each year. Quite often these students are international. The rooms are very well designed, however the desk space can be dark and sometimes cramped. I will conduct some initial research in order to determine what approach I taken when designing this Product.

Contextual Challenge: The Contemporary Home

ligh e going for just one bed because there are several people in a room who don't want to be disturbed at night. He mentioned about the shared communal area that doesn't have lighting that suits the room as it's just bright, harsh lights. Soft, warm light would be best because it is where the students go before sleep.

Client interview Q: What would be your budget/price range for the lamps? A: It would be between $25 - $30 for about 70 lamps seeing as I'm buying in batch for the Boarding House. But if they were for the communal area I'd pay around $50 - $ because I'd be buying less, maybe 3 or 4. Q: Any design movements you would like to be incorporated in the product? A: I personally enjoy the style of Art Deco or semi Art Deco. I like minimal design that is not overly complicated but looks attractive and does its job. Q: Any specific type of materials would you like the lamp to have? A: I prefer the use of wood as it can be attractive when lacquered or oiled and I don't mind steel or iron. Wood works well because it fits in with the existing furniture in the Boarding house. Q: Is there any other functions you'd like the lamp to have? A: If it was a bedside lamp a lamp that had several uses, like a book stand, would be very useful as the space is quite small. Even for a desk having more uses for a lamps footprint would be very useful. Q: Is there any specific colours or themes you like to be involved in the lamp? A: house colours are gold/yellow and black which would be nice if involved in the design. Q: Are there any specific safety features you need/want for the lamp? A: Not being able to touch the bulb (if it emits heat) or the electrics and it needs to not be able to break easily if were to be knocked or dropped.

Mr also spoke about how in a bedside lamp the ability to direct where the SUMMARY: From the location visit and interview, I’ve found out that space is an important issue in the Boarding House meaning that a task light will need to have a small footprint. Ambient lights however have more freedom and space for their design but need a soft glow. I now also know how much the client will pay and what he is looking for in an lamp for the Boarding house.

Mr - Head of Boarding House

Location visit School has 4 Boarding houses one of which is House that has around 70 students. In the rooms there's a beside table and small study desk but neither are provided with lighting. Also they all share a communal area that does not have appropriate lighting. This is an example of a bedside table that is located next to each bed. Students can bring in their own lights but nothing is provided. There isn't much space on it meaning the lamp needs to take up as less space as possible so other objects can be placed there as well. Students also have their own study desk in their rooms with no provided light. This table is also quite small and needs as much possible room for books and work. A lamp that is able to direct its light would be useful for when studying. This is the common room used by all the students to relax before bed or sometimes house meetings. There aren't any appropriate ambient lighting in this area, just bright, hospital-like overhead lights. There is enough space for a standing floor lamp to create a nice atmosphere. When we visited the Boarding House, we took measurements of various areas/tables. We measured the width of the headboard, 4cm, so if you were to designed a ‘clip on’ light, you would have the dimensions. We also measured the bedside table and study desk which were 46x46cm and 50x100cm.

Design Specifications AESTHETICS: My product must follow a design strategy from one of my researched design influences. Also it must appeal to the clients preferences who enjoys the use of wood and likes colours related to House. Packaging does not need lots of special design/features so can be simple.

COST: The light must be priced between $25 - $30 or $50 - $60 depending if it's a task or ambient lamp because this is what the client will be willing to pay. From analysis of existing products, it showed that their prices were similar at $24 for a moderate ambient lamp. Also the lamps price should display the design and quality.

CUSTOMER: The heads of Boarding House will be the clients who are buying the product but Boarding students will be the end users. From request of the client, the product must be durable, robust and safe from any possible hazards.

ENVIRONMENT: These products will be placed in the Boarding House in either the user's room or the shared common room. Both myself and the client want the lamp to be as environmentally friendly as possible. This can be done by using an energy efficient bulb or LED as well as using simple Eco-friendly material for the packaging.

SIZE: The Boarding House rooms don't have much space therefore the space on desks and tables are minimal, 46x46cm and 50x100cm. The lamp will have to have a small footprint as a bedside or study light as the tables are also used for other functions. If it is going to be used as an ambient light in the communal area, there is more freedom in its size as there is more space.

SAFETY: The product must not have open bulb or wires so that there is no possibility of the user harming themselves by electrocution or burn. Making the light durable so that it doesn't break easily and cause harmful pieces to be broken off is an feature requested by the client.

FUNCTION: The product could be either a task (bedside and study) or ambient (communal areas) light. For a task light, the client required it to be able to direct its light for only one person. It could also have the possibility of several functions to make up for the space it's using. For an ambient light, it should have a soft and warm glow to not disturb anyone in the area and create a nice atmosphere.

MATERIALS/MANUFACTURING: The product will be batch produced meaning it must be able to be made using industrial processes. This means using different machines such as a 3D printer. The client preferred the use of wood as a material but also likes steel or iron. Theses materials should be long lasting and the wood could possibly be locally sourced.

Boarding House

DESIGN BRIEF: To design and create lighting for Schools Boarding House to be used by students living in the Boarding House. It can be for a bedside table, personal study desk, communal ambient lighting or for outdoor lighting. It is important that the product does its specific purpose for the lighting option chosen such as enough lighting for reading if a bedside light and it is able to be disassembled to a smaller size for cheaper and easier packaging. Also the design needs to viable for possible industrial and batch production using industrial techniques/processes.

DESIGN IDEAS: Streamlined design - Movement

Incorporating a shutter into this light may be difficult. Also another feature could be added like a box for storage.

This is a good example of the prominent teardrop shape which I have incorporated in several of my designs.

Inspired by the teardrop shape being used as the main body in this sharpener, I used that in a light that clamps onto a be frame. This design reflects the price produced from th client.

This chair’s smooth soft look was used in several areas of my designs.

SUMMARY: The teardrop shape is a big part of streamline design and if I were to choose a light from this strategy to develop further it would need to incorporate this to fully represent this movement. It was difficult to add extra features when coming up with streamline influenced lights.

I used the soft streamlined design from this motorbike in my designs for a simplistic, calm look.

I used the interesting shape of the chairs back and used it in my design to make a creative shade. The bulb will need to be hidden for safety.

DESIGN IDEAS: Jean Prouvé - Designer

This stool inspired this similar light with its triangular looking legs. I also kept the flat top to help project the light.

SUMMARY: I like the outcome of these Jean Prouvé inspired designs and the interesting shapes and styles that have been drawn. There are several designs here that I think would be appropriate for an ambient or task light indicated in the design brief.

I used this buildings cross section and represented it in my design while also adding Prouvé’s signature shape.

The durable frame used in “Maison Demontable” and my design gives this light an impression of sturdyness and resistance. Also the houses wooden walls were used in this lights shade.

I wanted to use the “Buvet tables” most interesting component in a design make an attractive task light.

I like the chairs fat cushion contrast with the sleek metal bars and tried to convey a similar feel in my design.

This design is different to the rest as it has a slimmer feel. It could be a good desk light if I could make the head moveable.

Model Development

SUMMARY: Following the model development of two of my models, I have decided to choose Model 1 to develop as my final product. I came to this decision after looking at several ways both models could be developed and the first model will be most appropriate as a light for my client. This model also is refers closely to my design specification and can be developed even further to make it completely suitable.

From the peer evaluation they commented on how the cable would be managed. To fix this I would have it coming out the cone’s tip then going through the bottom of a wooden base at the back. This means the cable will be out of the way and not getting tangled up.

I would put a thin metal sheet at the back of the light so that the projected light is directed just towards one area of the room. The sheet would need to be more than halfway round the light to do this. This was an issue brought up by the client if they were going to buy lights for a Boarding House room.

The light would need a way of being able to replace the lightbulb inside when it needs changing. The easiest way would to have the lid able to come off and on, however it will need to stay attached to the light so it isn't lost or damaged. I would add a hinge so the lid can flip open for the user to change the bulb. The hinge might look better on the inside of the

life so as to not affect the aesthetics of the light.

This development was an idea from the peer evaluation group and they suggested raising the dome higher and having a storage box underneath. This would provide more storage space which is useful as the light takes up quite some space on a table. The storage space would be useful to slide in a book or a phone to hold or protect.

Model 1 Model 2

I would add one or more book slots in the back side of the light as an additional feature. This would give the back additional use aside from just directed light only at the user. There could be several slots for more books but they might need more support. The client brought up having a book stand when asked about other functions.

AESTHETICS: The lamp has an interesting shape andmodern appearance. This card model doesn't have the DESIGN ANALYSIS: Full size card model

colours of the real product; the final product will have simple muted colours from the wood, metal and polypropylene. However the 3D printed components could be coloured to suit the client's preference in the specification. Also the client like the use of wood in products and this lamp has wood for bothe the base and three sides of the shade.

COST: The lamp doesn't have many materials or components so won't be very expensive. I think it will be within the customer's price range but more near the higher amount of $30. This price will be good value for money as it’s an appealing product and has good functionality.

ENVIRONMENT: This lamp is best suited to be placed on the bedside table in the user's room. It will use a energy efficient bulb to make it more environmentally friendly as stated in the specification.

SIZE: The lamp is suitable for the bedside table because the base is only takes up a

SAFETY: The lamps bulb and wires are all enclosed so there's no danger of harm to anyone. There is some sharp corners which can be rounded on the final product. Also the metal wires need securely attached to the lamp otherwise they could be harmful. There are no loose components except for the lid which wouldn't do much damage. The lamp is fairly durable, a request made by the client.

FUNCTION: This lamp will be a task light for in a bedside table in a Boarders bedroom. It is able to direct its light to only one person/bed which was stated in the specification by the client. The bulb has a nice strong yellow light which will be softened slightly by the polypropylene therefore giving enough light for reading but not too harsh lighting. For the final product I would like it to have an added feature in the lid that holds objects allowing more functionality. Also having a switch or a dimmer switch would improve the lamps function.

MATERIALS/MANUFACTURING: The materials that will be used for final lamp product are hardwood, plywood, polypropylene, metal wires and tenth of the tables area; the base is 216 cm^ 3D printed plastic. These are suitable as they make and the table is 2,116 cm^2. This is because of it stable, robust and attractive. The client likes wood the bases shape meaning there's still space. being used in the product as stated in the The lamps height is 30 cm which inputs it at a specification and doesn't mind metal - steel or iron - good height to distribute light well. which the lamp will use.

SUMMARY: I've linked my analysis back to the specification which will allow me to make the necessary improvements such as adding the extra function on the lid. The lamp follows most of what was stated in the specification meaning it will make it a successful product after a few developments. The client mainly likes the lamp and would include some little developments.

CLIENT FEEDBACK

I got some feedback from my client from an interview about my model. Mr said he liked the stability of the lamp and the control of light being emitted which he thinks are important features. For the final product he would like there to be a switch on the cable and for the polypropylene to be frosted so the light isn't very bright. He also thought the lamp looked quite adaptable and creative.

SUMMARY: Through the CAD process several of the light’s components went through development due to the several issues that appeared once I started to ‘make’ it on the computer. A main development as a result of the CAD work was changing the supports to straight rods, instead of the bent wire, which made it more stable and secure. Also, the light’s proportions changed during the CAD process and has made the whole product smaller.

• Laser cutting

CAD Drawings - Rendered These are my rendered examples CAD drawings of my light. I’ve experimented with different materials and colour finishes to try and work out what could look good for the final product. I tried two colour schemes that represent two of the different Boarding Houses that the light would be being used in. I like the blue colour scheme

would be suitable for a bedside night light. Also the red colour scheme for Eagle Boarding House is attractive but maybe too bright/intensive a colour for night.

Makerware - 3D printing

Individual Component Parts

I have several different components that make up my light but most are CAM. They will use a variety of techniques to be made including 3D printing and laser cutting.

The main top components are the two laser cut plywood pieces. They both have holes for the supports and for the lamp shade to screw into. They also have a square opening for because of soft, calm colours which access to the bulb: one is smaller so as to support the lid and the other has a small semicircle cut out for taking out the lid.

The design for my light shade had to be changed and developed several times. It’s now going to be 3D printed as it's easier due to the complex angles. First I tried halving it to keep the original sizes but this didn't work when it tried to be printed so I ended up making the proportions smaller for it to fit/work. Another design development during the CAD was the change of the supports. I've changed them to straight rods that will connect the top and the base. These are more suitable for making the light stable as well as being simpler when making it.

SUMMARY: Through the use of my 3rd angle orthographic I am able to see my assembled light’s proportions which will help me in the manufacture of the product. From the the 3rd angle orthographic there's quite a bit of space between the shade and the base which may need to be reduced later. The material and cutting list will help with the manufacturing as it tells me the size of the components and how they will be manufactured.

Manufacturing Diary

I cut two 40x20x200mm meranti blocks using a tenon saw then I drilled the holes for the dowels and acrylic supports. After this, I sanded both pieces with sandpaper till it was smooth enough for use.

The dowels were cut to length of 235mm with a coping saw then glued with PVA glue into the holes in the wood blocks.

I sanded the sides of the sides of the base so the dowels were flush into the wood. Then it was oiled with Danish Oil and left. When it was dry, I added four feet to the meranti blocks and screwed the four support brackets.

1 all the 3D printed components I exported my CAD drawings as .stl files then opened them on makerware to be printed. I have a total of ten 3D printed components.

2 spray painted two of 3D printed components; I chose two different blues that suited my colour scheme.

3 components needed to be laser cut so I exported my CAD drawings as .dxf files and opened them on coreldraw to be transferred to the laser cutter.

4 plywood components were sanded together on the belt sander then had to be oiled with Danish Oil and the polypropylene had to be folded on the indents.

1 polypropylene diffuser is attached to the shade with four nuts and bolts. These are then attached to the plywood components with four nuts and bolts. 2 four corner clips slide onto each corner and fit above the corner holes. The light bracket just sits inside the shade.

I cut four acrylic rods with a coping saw and sanded the edges with the disc sander so they were smooth.

The base is already assembled and just needed to fit the four acrylic rods into the support brackets and fix them to the top support clips.

SUMMARY: My manufacturing diary records the processes to make my light including the different programmes, tools and equipment needed. It shows how it was made and also how it was finally assembled to complete the light.

My original design for the base met several problems during the process of manufacturing the light. If the top plywood components had been square then to make the base would have been much simpler as the wood components would have needed to just have been at right angles to each other. However my design changed during the CAD process making the top components rectangular and this made the angles needed very

complicated. The angles were too complex to get the exact

overlay of the wood components so the light’s legs would accurately line up. Due to this I changed the base design to a much simpler design but made sure that it didn't take up any more space than the previous design. I also thought about how the cable would be managed with the new design so it could be tidied away easily and not in the way.

The new design is simpler than my previous idea but continues similar image created by the acrylic rods. There is two dowel pieces to hold the wood blocks together and they also hold the cable in place.

Manufacture Development The design for the light’s legs didn’t need to be altered dramatically as the original design still worked. However there was some racking as the acrylic rods weren’t quite sturdy enough as they are flexible and there wasn’t enough depth in the wood and plywood to support them. As seen in the CAD most of the acrylic rods were exposed and only little of the ends were in either the meranti or plywood. To fix this problem I had to design four extra brackets to be attached to the meranti blocks that created extra support. As well as this I developed the four corner clips to include some extra support for the acrylic rods. I designed some CADs then exported them to be 3D printed.

The bottom brackets incorporated the lights main shape - pyramid - in them and were attached by three screws into the meranti. The corner clips fitted the same as before but just with extra length.

SUMMARY: I learnt about manufacture development and how it won’t also be what you’ve designed so you have to adjust but you can still achieve a similar product.

Final Client Interview

I had my client - Mr Head of Boarding House - review my end product. This allows my final light to be assessed by the client to see its appealability and whether it fits the client's criteria.

and thinks it “turned out well”. He enjoyed the good control of the amount of light being emitted as he thinks this is an important factor for a task light, especially as it is a bedside light. An important aspect of the light was changing the bulb and Mr liked the ease involved in the process and its straightforwardness. He liked the stability of the

top and he gave an example that he would place his glasses if he was using the light.

SUMMARY: These interviews show me how the client and end user enjoy the product but can see some slight improvements to better suit their needs. Both had similar improvement ideas for the light such as having extra functions incorporated in the light's design and they both liked the control of light emission.

Mr appreciated the design of the light and thought that even though he likes minimalistic design, the light wasn’t overly complicated and had an attractive design. As stated in the first interview, Mr commented on his preference of use of wood in the light so enjoyed the amount and different woods used in my product. He also thought that there was a good use and combination of the materials overall. A main improvement he would want would be a switch closer to the light for easy access of turning it on/off.

End User Interview I also had an end user review my end product. Benson is a Boarding House student who stays at Boarding House during the weekdays and would be using the product frequently. thought that the amount of light being Mr said that overall he “really liked” the light emitted was low enough to not be disturbing other students in the room. She also really enjoys the creative design of the light and thinks it would fit well on a bedside of a Boarding House room. The size appealed to her as she thought it’s not too big but also not too small; it leaves more than enough space on the bedside table. Some developments she mentioned to enhance the product and to light and believes you could rest light objects on the make it more suitable for use by the students were covering the gap at the top where the polypropylene allows direct light from the bulb to come out. Also commented on having a storage box/place would increase the functionality.

We also went to the Boarding House and placed our lights in the appropriate environment to review how well they work in the room.

TILT TEST: I tested the tilt angle for both the side and front faces and they both had large angles before they would begin to fall. The side face reached approx. 135 degrees and the front face reached about approx. 140 degrees. This is good as it means the light won’t be knocked over easily.

the water was absorbed as the wood had a water resistant finish and the other materials were all waterproof. This is good as it means no damage would occur if someone were to spill a liquid on the light.

RUN TIME TEST: I left the light on for six hours to test it’s durability. Afterwards I checked if anything had heated up; the surrounding polypropylene and ABS were cool to touch but the bulb was warm. This is alright has the bulb isn’t open and is protected. Also because nothing was hot to touch it means that no one will harm themselves by burning their skin.

FITNESS FOR PURPOSE: My light fits its role as a task light on a bedside table as it directs light at only the person using it. It produces enough light to be able to read by but not disturb the user or others before bed. Also it takes up very little space on the table so there's space available for other uses or functions. However, it could be multi-functional and provide other uses as this would be useful as boarders have limited space. Also the bulb can be changed easily after constant use by the user.

SUMMARY: The tests that I carried out on my light allowed me to prove its durability and suitability to be a Boarding House bedside light. Also it will allow my client and users know it is reliable.

SUMMARY: These developments would improve the light for usage by the user and would produce a more attractive product. They would also improve the lights functionality.

Lamp Improvements A good improvement to the light would be to add either a on/off switch or a dimmer. Having a switch directly on the light would make it easier for the user to turn it on or of. A dimmer would allow the user to choose their preferred lighting depending on the activity. They would probably prefer to have softer, low lighting right before going to bed so it doesn’t disturb them but brighter lighting for when they’re reading in bed. WATER RESISTANCE: To test the lights water resistance I applied some water droplets to several surfaces. None of I would like to develop the light’s diffuser and shade so that there’s a larger area for the diffuser and having smaller area on the sides. This would change the light’s shape a bit but not drastically and it wouldn't affect many of the other components. The larger diffuser area would mean that more light will be produced for the user to utilise.

Another feature I would improve is the legs and I would make them stronger so that they completely supported the light. To make them stronger would mean making them thicker and going deeper into the plywood and meranti. Having the stronger legs would mean there would be no need for the brackets so less components to manufacture. Having the stronger legs and longer top could mean that another function could be involved with the lamp. Such as being able to support a book or other objects. This means that the light would make use of the space it is taking up.
