“looking out is not just about living, it’s a lifestyle.”
From the Secondary Research that the Designers and I have done from the start of the project, a theme began to emerge from the images that were collated. Most if not all apartment shots which has a Window insight either had the curtains drawn or the view was just shocking. Because of the way most of the apartments are raised, every window that you look out is towards another building, with a view of your neighbors kitchen, toilet, living room, Air Condition units, Railings...everything but beautiful, calming views.
This led to further secondary and primary research into Chinese people's living habits and lifestyles. After interviewing a group of people I came to a conclusion that, if people have a great view to look at, it would enhance their environment and create a better living space. Apartment with good views are expensive, but if you can manipulate your surroundings, it is cheaper.
My product will be a movable screen, using the combinations of new technologies like ‘E-Ink and Electrochromatic Glass/Plastic’ to create a ‘Window’ where the users can look out; dream, be motivated and get inspired. They can change the image whenever they like with a click of a button. There is another function with this product as it is a room divider to divert the flow of “chi” into and around the house.
The dimension of the product is 1800mm x 1800mm x 20mm
