Multi-functional furniture solution
Functional
What does it do?
hold drinks / snacks/ other belongings
aesthetic purposes
provides storage
What does it need to store?
TV remotes - maximum 300mm x 60mm
potentially hidden storage
Aesthetics
"classic wooden look" - maybe a dark wood stain to fit the colour of the couch?
gold accenting?
patterned accenting?
Paints, Stains, Varnishes, and Waxes could be used.
mood lighting - can be done with LED lights
how can this be done and what type of lighting would I use?
set of geometrically identical tables that can be placed together for a bigger shape and a new design
Anthropometrics
what height is a normal coffee table?
should not be too low down
hand measurements are needed to make sure lids/handles are comfortable
would I need to measure this directly from my client and the other users or would I use predetermined information?
Client Use/Needs
client wants storage
potentially separate and hidden from sight
no inner shelves
has to have a portability aspect - so that the table can be moved to the users' needs
Environment and Sustainability
locally and sustainably sourced materials
waste should be reduced as much as possible
all processes should be as sustainable as possible
Cost
low cost
should justify the materials and manufacturing processes used
Ergonomics
hand measurements are needed to make sure lids/handles are comfortable
height of the table should not be too high and should be catered towards the persona or the average user
follow the client interview to suit it to the user
the height should also correspond with the sides of the furniture that it will be pushed up against
Material Requirements
aesthetics
electrical LED lights?
could they be battery powered?
could they be solar powered?
would they need to be connected to an external power supply?
would that limit the portability aspects?
Paint? Stains? Varnishes? Waxes?
structure
acrylic?
could be used if the lighting was
inside the storage
wood?
veneered MDF? it's a good base to work with
should be able to be made in a school workshop in school timings
