THE DH CLUB PRESENTS OUR JOURNEY

Today, our group presented the story of our Green Furniture group. We have been slowly yet strongly developing a more concrete direction through intensive research. Our group is at the foundational stage which makes us rather unique to the other groups as they have more solid plans and direction. We have appreciated our classmates and professors support as we weed through the trials and tribulations of the early phases of project development.

During our presentation, we discussed the metamorphosis of our process – from Green Furniture ideas, to a gazebo using recycled materials, to an outdoor unconventional classroom, to research on various uses of space, to a potential business model for a second-hand furniture shop for students, to a drive-in bicycle movie theatre… As you can see there are many directions we are interested in pursuing.

The next step is to decide on the best idea! We are enjoying this experience – it has been fun, stressful, chaotic and a complete learning experience. Our ultimate desire is to create an idea, a structure, a product or design that will affect Windsor in some positive way.
