This two month study is the most important experience to me since I ever know about design. Every minute I spend in this two month, I spend on looking at furnitures, walking in master piece architectures and all other design related things. I feel so excited and so happy that make me realize that I want to continue do this for the rest of my life. Since this I began to see design as my lifetime career. Special thanks to Nils-Ole Zib my professor and constructor in design career.
Through using senario study, design is trying to redefine the functionality of daily product and develope the design to meet people needs.

This is a independent project I did in 2011 winer. I start it with research of what to design and then end it with a real product prototype. From nothing to the finished design, the experience of going through this whole process is what I learn from this project.
design is trying to use home products and furnitures to solving the problem in interior spaces. And through this we can understand what exactly product we need and also their limitations.
