Refining Our Idea
From our finsings we've decided that we will integrate what we learnt from our simulation into the app in which people mostly enjoyed the two way assessment and two way dialogue beacuse it was confronting but light hearted. through our feeedback we noted that we will make this our main feature in our app and revolve our app around this interaction between two people and how it affets the relationship and ao fourth once takng part in our simulation

Interim Critique/Prototyping
This was our prototyping we had two at this stage. A driving simulation with the pics down below an app .
The aim of our simulation was to test our hunch on how people act when being taught how to drive and what roles people instantly take on to do so.

Mid Semester Task: Softwalks
Marcus and I found this very cool innovative example calleD Soft walks which was attachments tht go onto sidewalk sheds and provide a seat, table, leaner or lampshade to make use of the sidewalk sheds. Heres our script from our presentation to further explain
Marcus 1st slide These are side walk sheds. A sidewalk shed resembles scaffolding, but is designed to protect pedestrians from falling debris. New York City has over 189 miles of scaffolding. and NYC is known as a walking city and these scaffoldings have a detrimental impact on the walkability of urban environments However, in NYC the vast majority of sidewalk sheds are inactive construction sites, presenting a unique opportunity for temporary peacemaking Lani 2nd slide An urban innovation studio called Softwalks has developed a DIY kit that changes pesky sidewalk construction scaffoldings and transforms them into support stations for fun and lively modular public spaces, making them more appealing to everyone. The project was based off insights from users and focuses on their true user needs. 3rd slide Marcus The components latch onto the metal beams to create simple impromptu hang-outs and rest stops for busy city dwellers, making the possibilities for sidewalk beautification endless. A simple chair, counter, planter and lighting fixture are installed to create pop-up parks, transforming an eyesore into a community asset. Lani 4th after Marcus 5ways These relate to the five ways of wellbeing through offering places for rest and support and opportunities for social interaction amongst others through using the soft walk accessories.
