A Central Resource for the Region http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
The Full Scale Modelling Lab(which can also be used for other scale models as well...) http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Design @ Work • Multidisciplinary Research Group • Architecture, Design, Drama, Psychology, Informatics, Ergonomics, Computer Science, Human Computer Interaction, Participatory Design • Formed about 7 years ago • Active until about 2 years ago • Less active now, but still talking to each other • New projects to continue from previous work http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Working in the Fullscale Lab http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Participatory Design • Involving all the people connected to a design change (end users) • Tacit Knowledge • Communities of Practice • Design by doing • Supporting Collaboration and Communication http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Envisionment Workshop • A toolbox with various tools and methods of usage for participatory design • Full Scale Modelling, Drama, Virtual Reality, Democratic Meeting Techniques • Integration of the tools http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Aims • To further improve the integration of the physical models with the virtual environments. • To use and refine this new tool through real design situations. http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Object • Sege Park, an area of Malmö with existing buildings and a park-like feeling that is to be preserved. • Situation: a gentrification of the area is in progress with renovations and new buildings being discussed and built. http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Methodology • A Case Study • Iterative Prototyping • User Centered Design • Prototype testing through real situations • Observations • Feedback from the test subjects http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
Technology • Wood, Cardboard, Paper, Glue • VICON Optical Tracking System • Modified for rigid body tracking • Virtual Reality System with double projectors and Passive Stereo Capabilities http://www.reflex.lth.se/design/datw
