A TELEVISION THAT IS NOT BLACK BUT TRANSPARENT SEEMS TO BE AN EYE-CATCHING PRODUCT THAT WOULD DRAW CUSTOMERS INTO THE SHOP.THIS DVD PLAYER HAS A WOOD COLOUR WHICH GIVES THE PRODUCT A HIGH-GRADE LOOK.  THIS TOASTER HAS GLASS ON BOTH SIDES. IT COULD BE PLACED IN THE CENTRE OF THE KITCHEN AREA. HIGH-GRADE ESPRESSO/COFFEE MACHINES AND MIXERS AS WELL AS GRILLERS WILL BE DISPLAYED IN THE KITCHEN AREA. THE BIG APPLIANCES AREA CAN DISPLAY PRODUCTS LOOKING LIKE THESE. OTHER SMALL-SIZED PRODUCTS CAN BE DRAWN FROM MEMORY.

THE LIGHTING WILL RETAIN THE ORIGINAL STRAIGHT LINE ARRANGEMENT BUT WITH MORE VARIETY IN THE STYLE. THE CEILING FOR MY DESIGN COULD BE SIMILAR TO THOSE AT THE MIT SLOAN SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT, CAMBRIDGE, MA. THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SCHOOL OF PHARMACY USES A VARIETY OF WOOD PANELS (QUARTER-SAWN BEECH VENEER) TO GIVE THE HALLWAY THE SENSE OF QUIET AND CALM. THE CURVED WOOD PANELS ARE VERY INTERESTING. ACOUSTICS AND BEAUTY IS BALANCED IN THE SOKA UNIVERSITY PERFORMING ARTS CENTER AND ACADEMIC FACILITY, WITH ADJUSTABLE ACOUSTICAL CURTAINS BEHIND THE WOODEN GRILLES. THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN SUITED TO A SPEAKER SHOP. THE CEILING OF THE KING ABDULLAH UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, JEDDA, SAUDI ARABIA BREEZEWAY IS A GOOD LAYERING OF METAL SHEETS. WOODEN CEILINGS ARE THE BEST FOR A HIGH-GRADE SHOP.

THE APPLE STORE PHOTO SHOWS THE CHARACTERISTIC TABLES WHICH ARE SUITED TO SHOWING PRODUCTS. THE STANDING CLEANER IS ABLE TO CLEAN THE AIR AND THE FLOOR. THE FLOORBOARDS CAN BE A DARK REDDISH COLOUR AND A LIGHT TEXTURE, AS SHOWN HERE.

 

THE PANASONIC FAN IN THE MIDDLE IS BLACK AND GOLD. ANY OTHER COLOUR VARIATION WOULD NOT MATCH THE LAYOUT OF COLOUR IN THIS SHOP. BEHIND THE FAN, EITHER PCs OR THE GLASS SCREEN TELEVISION CAN BE STATIONED ON THE TABLE. THE AQUARIUM SECTION CAN BE EMPTY FOR THE MOMENT, AS THE EMPHASIS IS MORE ON THE FILTERING TECHNOLOGY RATHER THAN THE RELAXATION ASPECT. THE GLASS STANDS ON THE WALLS ARE ALSO VARIED. 

THE IDEA OF DESIGNING A HIGH-GRADE ELECTRONICS STORE CAME FROM THIS PHOTO. IT IS LOCATED INSIDE THE CONCEPT LABI BUILDING. THE CEILING DOES NOT MATCH THE LAYOUT OF THE STORE. I DECIDED TO DESIGN A SIMILAR AREA WITH EVEN MORE FOCUS ON THE VALUES OF ELECTRONICS STORES. TO ENABLE A SMALL AREA TO HAVE THE EFFECT THAT USUALLY TAKES A WHOLE BUILDING TO ACCOMPLISH IS MY GOAL.

reverse-engineering

  Whether it's rebuilding a car engine or diagramming a sentence, people can learn about many things simply by taking them apart and putting them back together again. That, in a nutshell, is the concept behind reverse-engineering—breaking something down in order to understand it, build a copy or improve it.   A process that was originally applied only to hardware, reverse-engineering is now applied to software, databases and even human DNA. Reverse-engineering is especially important with computer hardware and software. Programs are written in a language, say C++ or Java, that's understandable by other programmers. But to run on a computer, they have to be translated by another program, called a compiler, into the ones and zeros of machine language. Compiled code is incomprehensible to most programmers, but there are ways to convert machine code back to a more human-friendly format, including a software tool called a decompiler.   Reverse-engineering is used for m...

Australian Icons Research

  Australian Icons Research- Why and How is Qantas Airlines Iconic? In March 1919, W Hudson Fysh and Paul McGinness became interested in a competition sponsored by the Government. They were unable to receive funding, and so, on 18 August 1919, in a Model T Ford, they began an assignment from the Defence Department to check a different competition route. It was during these 51 days when their determination grew to allow outback Queenslanders and people of North Australia have access to a more reasonable way of life. The key to this was air transport. Fergus McMaster, a wealthy grazier who was friends with McGinness, was the primary supporter of this new idea. He was Chairman in the beginning. The formation of the original Qantas company (Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services Limited.) was in 16 November 1920. The well-known ‘QANTAS’ was created from the acronym of this first name. Joy riding and demonstration flights were undertaken with two expertly modified old plane...

My Workplace Reflection

  My Workplace Reflection Using the results of your Employability Skills audit describe how one or more of your capabilities were developed through the work experience program. If possible, use specific examples that relate to each capability. My Literacy Capability was developed the most during the program. All the tasks that I performed required me to first fully understand the instructions. Working with, and serving customers was also a new experience and required me to understand their problems and keep them happy by suggesting alternative ways. Understanding the customer and talking to them in a friendly way was all that was expected of me at that stage. My Critical and Creative Thinking Capability was developed when I ran into small problems in various tasks. In some cases I was unable to come up with a solution and hence, asked for help. Initiative in solving problems was a relatively minor aspect and so it can be developed further. Working in a public library, one c...
