Stem Idea 1
Function
With rectangular shapes needed to be cut, it means that there is minimal wastage (6.1) therefore lots of colours can be used, some of which can match the library's colour scheme (2.1).
The bright, fun design my distract users from studying as it is a design that adds layers to design and different textures (2.5) which users my find distracting.
Function
There is a bolt located between the two pipes, this allows the user to adjust the bar to the angle they prefer then tightening the bot, locking it in place. This allows the light to be moved to different areas of the desk (1.2).
Location
The design for this stem has lots of sharp lines and 90 degrees, this suits the harsh straight lines in the library's environment (5.2).
Safety
As the bars change the wires will have to run out one pipe and into anther. This means that the wiring will be exposed to the user, therefore it will have to be insulated correctly (8.2).
Materials
The aluminium bars bring in the aspects of exposed metal form around the library. The acrylic in the base add a fun feature to the product with a splash of colour. The colours match with colours in the library already (9.2).
Performance requirements
The bolt that allows the user to adjust the angle of the light needs to be taped long enough to allow the user to unscrew the bolt enough to allow it to be moved but tightened enough to get the bar to be set into place (10.6).
User requirements
The problem with this stem is the mechanism, the bolt takes time to screw and unscrew co paired to other lights. This is the main problem with the design (11.2).
Scale of production
The acrylic can be laser cut reducing production time, meaning only the bars would need to be done by hand, saving time and money (12.1) making it more suited for batch production.
Quality
As all the acrylic is laser cut the accuracy of this part is extremely accurate, keeping the measurements to the nearest 1 cm (13.2).
