SJ 10- Initial Ideas of Tower 







This tower is designed based on the characteristic of The Pooh which is his laziness. There will be 3 platforms or resting point for Pooh to rest whenever he feel lazy or tired after climbing the tower. The shape of the platform as well as the viewing point will be in a irregular shape because it gives us the feeling of laziness.

SJ 07- Initial Ideas of Viewing Ideas





These are the 3 initial ideas for the viewing towers

. The 1st tower is based on the tree house concept. It is cylinder shape tower but there is a part of the tower is opened and at the outer layer of the cylinder, there are 2 curved layer that are movable which is from the side to front or back. On top of this 2 layers, there are few boxes for the toy character to go inside and view the surrounding.


The 2nd tower is based on the ideas of convenient. This is because the toy character is Pooh and his main characteristic is lazy. He can always climb and go into the boxes that are attached to the sticks. When he is lazy, he can always go to the lowest box to view the place. Each viewing direction and height of boxes is designed differently. If he go to the other boxes, he can view the other side of the place.


The 3rd tower is based on the characteristic of Pooh which is lazy. Although the tower is tall but Pooh can always rest at the resting point when he is tired. The shape of the tower is also designed irregularly.
