[DEPOT] CONTEXT POSTER

This case study wants to demonstrate how to built a environment which adopt abundant natural light in a reused building. Sand studio was designed to satisfy different demands and function. The commercial area is perfectly connected with residential space. The designers in this project pursue the maximum daylight and try to create a harmonious atmosphere in interior space. The clerestory and glass atrium help to induce light into the space, and the translucent glasses help to diffuse the light. The well illumination not only satisfies aesthetic needs but also functional demands.

[DEPOT] Vision disability workshop

I had a great experience in this Friday. We used different materials to experience vision changes. First, we used the plastic bag to see the newspaper. It is really difficult to understand the words on the papers because the words can't be clear. And then we used the vision simulator tool to observe the environment. I think that it is really difficult to see the environment clearly, and it will be very dangerous for disable people to walk in CUB. We also wore the special glasses to walk through the hallway. I found that it can be hard to read the sign when the sign does not have good illumination. If the words are too dark, I also cannot read the words and it can be very dangerous. The stair in Holland library has nice natural light, so it is really safe to go through there. We also used the ATM machine in CUB. I think that it will be difficult to recognize the number in key-pad because it is lack of light. In my opinion, I think that we should built a environment which is accessible for everyone. The universal design in public space is really important, and we don't need to consider to cost of those requirements. If we can't built the friendly environment, it will let disable people be unproductive and cannot be self-reliance. And it will be increase the social cost and create negative externalities  to our society. I hope that I can find some information about new technologies which can make the world more accessible and apply those ideas in my projects.
