FEATURE WALL
CONCEPT: For this wall I wanted to find an interesting and playful way to represent waste management, an important topic that is taught and enfrced by teachers and parents. The most shocking information that I came across is the amount of time waste takes to decompose and what our landfills are made up of. I decided to show this by telling a story starting with what happens in a house and ending with the landfill. In the mock up I have added elevations to creat more interaction and visual interest. ON THIS WALL: 1) The info house 2) The decomposition time line 3) Global waste managment 4) Toxic waste effects on the human body 5) What our landfills are made up of

ELEVATOR WALL
WALL #1 CONCEPT: This is one big info graphic, This whole wall represents scale. I wanted to get across how much water, trees and energy your can save by recycling. I also wanted it to look unique, so I chose to try an alternative to putting plastic bottles on a wall. This wall is simple but the goal is to communicate a strong message. WALL #2 CONCEPT: Its all about water. I wanted to show how much water it takes to create the food we eat. I myself never realized how significant this was, so I thought it would be good to inform other kids. WALL#3 CONCEPT: This bright wall is a simple way of drawing people down the hall to the alcove. Its also a large title to showcase what the alcove is all about. FONT: Body Text-Univers 47 condensed Sub Tiles- Cenery Gothic Title- Univers 57

FEATURE WALL - INTERACTION

INTERACTION #1 I would like the garbage truck to ba able to have its bucket move. The kids can make it move like they are picking up the garbage.

INTERACTION #2 I would also like the tires to ba able to spin.

INTERACTION #3 This info graphic it to showcase the hoped for percentage of waste managment for the future, There is a door that opens on each bin to show the amount of waste.

INTERACTION #4 This is the front door of the house. The door opens and explains what is going on in the house

FEATURE WALL - TIME LINE

The time line which starts at the Icon represents the years it takes objects to decompose, in a bar graph style. The Icons were originally mean to spin on a pole that runs through them. but when building the model I eliminated it. On the other side of the circle is the color that sourounds the object which states if it should be recycled, garbage, or Composed.

FEATURE WALL - GLOBAL WASTE MANAGEMENT

FEATURE WALL - TOXIC WASTE EFFECTS

I think its more motivating to know the effects of toxic waste on the human body, which in return is more effective in making me recycle. With this said, I didnt want to make it the focus so its smaller and more informational then preaching.

FLOOF PLAN - UPPER VIEW ELEVATIONS

ELEVATIONS With the limitations of model building I have been able to place some elevations. But with this said there are many other opportunities to create more elevations as well as a variety of different variations of elevations.
