CONTEXT: Everyone wants their own personal space. Many new technologies now enable you to live in clouds. You can teleport from the Earths surface into clouds. This is an architectural design competition for you to design your own "miCloud" personal space.
In your own miCloud you can live/work/party/sport/chill/anything. The only restriction is the overall maximum weight of your miCloud.

ISSUE: There's not enough land on Earth for everyone to have there own personal space & there are to many restrictions. Earth is to busy, to many cars, to noisy, to dirty, to polluted. Teleporting to your miCloud to live/work/party/sport/chill/anything solves these issues.
SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT: What will you use your miCloud for? What will it look like on the inside? What 'things' will you have in your miCloud? Note: Weight restriction; the cloud weighs nothing, its what you put in your miCloud that counts as weight. (ref specifications)
PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT: What type of cloud is your miCloud? (wikipedia-clouds) What will it look like from Earth? (amazing clouds) How big is your miCloud? (cloud types) What shape is your miCloud? (cloud shapes) Where is your miCloud located, static or moves?
STAKEHOLDER FEEDBACK: A stakeholder is someone who gives you 'constructive feedback' throughout your project. Their comments should make you think about your ideas, assess other options, make your ideas better to improve your project. For this miCloud design project Marc Williams will be your stakeholder. Make notes based on his in-class feedback.
OUTCOME: Describe the final design of your miCloud. Explain or justify why your miCloud should be made.
ATTRIUBUTES: Describe the main features of your miCloud.
FINAL BRIEF: Write a 2 sentence conceptual statement to describe your miCloud design.
SPECIFICATIONS: Specifications are a detailed list of your project. For example; instead of saying your miCloud is a 'large white cloud' you would say your miCloud is a 100 meter long x 50 meter wide x 300 meter high Stratus cloud colour #f8f8f8.
For this design project the only restriction is the overall maximum weight of your miCloud. The cloud weighs nothing, its what you put in your miCloud that counts as weight. The maximum weight specification of your miCloud is 2000kg. You need to specify the weight of everything you put in your miCloud including the max number of people in your miCloud (assume all people weigh 50kg in the clouds).
