Shweeb Design Exercise Alternative Assessment
Shweeb Design Project - Station
Your design team represent ‘Shweeb Monorail Technology' and have spotted an opportunity to implement and test your new 2 person Shweeb cars around a proposed theme park in North Kent. Your job, as part of this team, is to design a showcase station that will invite and facilitate use of the Shweeb from the main entrance to the theme park. The theme park itself is being sponsored by Tesla and the design of your station should take inspiration from the brand and link in with its core values and, where appropriate, its products.
You will be required to submit 2 x A3 drawings of your station which many include sections, floor plans, elevations, callouts and labels.
These drawings should communicate the design and should consider:
• What the station will look like.
• How it will tie in with the sponsoring company / theme.
• Is the aesthetic in keeping with a ‘state of the art modern theme park' (i.e. the station should be at the ‘iconic / striking' end of the scale rather than an uninspiring building)?
• How the station has been designed to function efficiently. How will people use the building and interact with it and has this experience been optimised?
• What the structural system will be (no calculations or checks are required but a sensible structural system should be visible on the drawings).
• Any appropriate Health, Safety and Welfare considerations associated with your design.
