Waiting for a bus at a bus stop…

-spaces to stand and/or sit (physical)

-in Singapore there is no snow and the year is hot all around. So, to the comfort we should have fans.

-places to throw away the rubbish. (emotional, physical?)

-time of when the bus will come and the number of people on board/if there is space for people to board. So at least people will have a brief timing of when it is coming. (emotional)

-public phones at the bus stop (emotional?)


what products and services would meet the needs you have identified?


-rubbish bins located at every bus stop

-spaces to stand or sit at the bus stop


Are there any products and services that occur in more than one situation? why is this?


-rubbish bins located at every bus stop. To have a clean and green community in Singapore.

-spaces to stand or sit at the bus stop. Some people have to rest to wait for a long time for the bus just in case some old people or physically disabled people need to have spaces/places to sit down to rest their legs especially. they also need support if they are standing to ease their discomfort.

Different types of drawings

1.Life Drawing

2.Emotive Drawing

3.Sketching

4.Analytic Drawing

5.Perspective Drawing

6.Geometric Drawing

7.Diagrammatic Drawing

8.Illustration Drawing


Life Drawing: drawing as a means of expression; drawing from direct observation, as in still-life or figure drawing

Emotive Drawing: drawing, like painting, as an expressive way to explore and put forth feeling, mood, self, time, and so on; drawing as a sensitive expression of personality

Sketching: drawing in order to explain or actively think through a problem; drawing through the act of visualizing; drawing actively and loosely

Analytic Drawing: drawing as a way to dissect, understand and represent; drawing from observation

Perspective Drawing: drawing as a way to represent volume, space, light, eye-level (horizon), surface planes, and scale

Geometric Drawing: drawing as a means to precisely represent all aspects of construction; drawing that shows measured scale, true sides, sections, and a variety of descriptive views.

Diagrammatic Drawing: drawing in order to investigate, explore, and document concepts and ideas; drawing as an active design process where ideas evolve due to adjacencies and happenstance

Illustration Drawing: drawing in order to document; drawing to clearly state and render intent, style, size, color, character, effect, and so on.


the purpose for each of these drawings categories vary, as do the end result. A sketch can quickly document an idea upon first conception, whereas a geometric drawing requires a much longer gestational period. The sketch is of the moment and the geometric drawing is more labored. The sketch contains possibility and potential, whereas the geometric drawing is more like the ending chapter to a novel, final. The person who makes the drawing must weigh the truth and consequences of the effort, choose the method of drawing that is appropriate, that which will provides the best result.
