What Makes a Successful/Good Design?

A good design is when the product fulfills the specifications of the brief and does what it designed to do. It should also be built with the right materials and be very efficient. But the design should also satisfy the designer and the user to become a successful design.

I think this is going to be an awesome experience and I would learn alot of things from this project. I think it would be challenging in some parts, like finding out how to power the building, how people are going to get there, etc. But overall I think it is going to be a very interesting project to do.

Green Architecture

ACROS Fukuoka, is a building in Fukuoka City, Japan that has one side of it's wall covered with palnts.

•The plants make the building unique.
•It would make a very good tourist attraction.
•How do they manage all the plants?
•What are the disadvantages of having this?
•Should other buildings start doing this too?
•It looks like it is preventing sunlight to enter the building.
•The plants look like it can spread, would it cover the whole building?
•Would it affect how people worked in the building?
•It has an amazing design on how the plants are planted.

Colours

Colours has been around fo years. It was different back in the day because only wealthy people could only have coloured clothing, while others were forced to wear brown coloured clothing because making colour was very hard and expensive. Colour has affected how people say things, like "I'm feeling blue" and "That was red hot". Colour has also affected what people think about products. When we see white, we think it's cheap, but when we see colourd things, we think it's expensive.
