| − | For the interactions workshop in week 2, we decided to design a floor element. While questioning different unique properties of the element, the hardness element has been chosen. We then focused on the need for a hard floor in a young household. While adults might want to manoeuvre fast over the surface, babies or toddlers could prefer - while falling, rolling and crawling - a softer one. We came to the conclusion that the surface desiribly could have more densities, resulting in a harder or softer floor.
| + | The concept for the physical computing design workshop is a rotating house. By using all the surfaces spaces are made of, a high density in space is being created. The wheel, rotating according to the specified needs of users at specified times, is the main element of the design. By combining the rotating space with static bathrooms, storage and kitchen-space, we aimed to improve the feasability of the design. |
| | + | Furthermore, the components of the design will be more rigid or adjustable, according to their acquired lifecycle. |

Concept
The concept for the physical computing design workshop is a rotating house. By using all the surfaces spaces are made of, a high density in space is being created. The wheel, rotating according to the specified needs of users at specified times, is the main element of the design. By combining the rotating space with static bathrooms, storage and kitchen-space, we aimed to improve the feasability of the design.
Furthermore, the components of the design will be more rigid or adjustable, according to their acquired lifecycle.
