Meeting notes- week 9

Well so after we got feedback from the client meeting.
-They want to stick closely to the council image and not re brand the library. Colours for example would be the yellows, neutrals and blacks etc.
-They are keep on sustainability (eco stuff)

Stuff to do for the final submission in week 13

Design in stages
-The most feasible to produce now------> the longer term that will be feasible in time
(the sun room is more of a long term thing so for now we could go with just an event)

So with our idea we are going with the idea of bringing reading from the inside to the outside and vice versa.

-Could be done with light
-Colour
-Outdoor event---> thinking about shaded areas?

How could we take reading outside?
---->monitored---->event in summer--->Civic square
In terms of an event we could think about creating (marketing strategy):
-brochures/posters
-wayfinding
(could think of in terms of before, during and after/ what they do, think , feel)

-Power pack could be brought outside and useful since there aren't plugs outside.

System of the power pack will be that
-They issue it through members with library cards so it would prevent taking elsewhere.
-Libraryelf could track this as well (alert people), the person it is issued to is liable for damages.
-It will be stored behind the issue desks.

Budgeting around the power pack and building a strategy to implement
-Where can they make it?
-How much will it cost?
-Give them places they can go to make it?

Feasibility:
----> How they would make it?
----> Finding places to make it?
----> Giving them the process?
----> Show them how?
----> Sticking to their budgets to make the idea happen?
----> Finding common channels, such as where they do their promotional stuff or get materials?


So moving forward with 4 weeks to go we need to:

-Add visuals to power pack idea (put digital prototypes in the drive)
--> I think the idea of getting the public to design imagery for the power packs that was brought up could work. Maybe this could be apart of the event because we would need to think of way to get this out to the public anyway. (Also, for this idea, think about how it would be printed on the power packs, if it image would fade from the warmth of the power pack and costs etc.

-Also photos of the library space inside (places to put power packs) and outside (civic square) would be useful too, just to put ideas in the environment of the library.
-Research budgeting around power pack idea
-Test out Ideas on people around library area on sunny days (document data/results)
-Possible ideas/concepts around an event around the sun room idea (more feasible now)
-Could develop sun room idea, however it is currently unfeasible. It could be a future development for them though. The event is more of a stepping stone.
-develop visual responses such as posters, brochures or wayfinding for an event.
