Envisioning the Concept (At and Abstract Level) Part 2

As a group we decided to perform a Post-It Note Analysis as stated earlier in this blogg.

We had 3 categories,
(1) A Random Word,
(2) An Activity, and
(3) Element of Space.

Individually we added a word to each of the 3 categories,

Element of Space produced: Catus, Air, Greenary, Nature, Landmark, Path, Central Focal Point, and Question.

Activity produced: Jump, Visual Effects, Cold, Tricks, Comtemplation, Talking, Communicate, and Interaction.

Random Words produced: Feel, Water, Ecosystem, Height, Comfortable, Belief, Beacon, and Diversity.

Fig (1) shows the initial stage of producing the individual post-it notes, and organising them into their relevant categories.




Stage 2 comprised of grouping the notes, (notes that could be linked together via a common bond.)

Fig (2) shows grouping the notes together that are considered by memebers of the group to have a relevant link.

(Post-it Note Group Example:)


Stage 3 of the Post-It Note Analysis was to make not of the connections made between the 3 categories.

Examples of such connections are shown below.

Belief > Path > Talking: Connection, Peoples belief, what they feel, the path they have taken, the journy.
Design > Home > Rest: Connection, The design of the home and how it promotes rest and relaxation.
Beacon > Focal Point > Comunicate: Connection, Finding you way home, finding a central point, Centre (home), communication between friends and family.
Diversity > Question > Interaction: Connection, People omming together interacting asking questions.
