New Project Brief

John Roppolo

Our project Bench Workspace gives students a space to enjoy nature while under the shade of a tree. The desk my partner and I designed attaches to a tree, creating an outdoor work space on the school's lawn. 

Why use your lap as a desk when you can have a fold-able bench that transforms into a work space? The primary use of (project name) is to provide a peaceful place to sit outside and work. Our Project can be used by students who have a free period in the day and would like to finish  homework or study. 

The desk has hinges in it so it can be used as an arm rest and a desk. Give several paragraphs of text explaining what worked and didn't work in your model. Tell us about your different design iterations and why you went with the tree attachment. What engineering challenges did you face?

Although we haven't completed the final product we believe that once we finish the full scale it will offer students a great option for  studying and quietly and efficiently outside?.
