Design the word design has many interpretations depending on the context

eg.for graphic designer, it is the visual appeal on paper or any 2nd medium,

for Mandap Decorator it is the floral arrangement, for an architect it is the

creation of spaces for particular function, for interior designer it can be

whole lot of things exe. From graphic design to creating an ambience which

architect has thought for the space.

DESIGN is anticipation of all elements which make a human being Happy and

comfortable.

A human being perceives things and declares them good, bad or ugly

based on his senses which have matured over thousands of years. He has

reason to declare a thing good or bad.

He judges them with certain Attitudes which are called principals of

design.

All designs are centered on human beings. An animal 5’.6”to 6’.0”tall with

high intellectual level, who perceive things keeping in mind his scale & eye

vision cone & DEMANDS PHYSICAL,MENTAL COMFORT. An object, setting,

work of art is called GOOD DESIGN only when the human accepts it. He

accepts only when he is satisfied in all respect. But, mind well, many

situations influence his decisions ex. climate, culture etc.

Process:-

At, first we have started by

just sketching our ideas, but really we don’t

know at that time how we could make it

possible..!!At starting we got big trunk so we

thought to use it in a nice way. So we had made

this kind of design.

THEN, WE STARTED TO DEAL

WITH THE TOOLS AND TRY TO CREAT OUR

STUFFS BUT AT FIRST WE FACE SO many problems in using all carpentry

tools. So we were told to go outside and make some R&D (research &

development) about using these tools. So we move out and caught one of

carpenter and we learn all necessary things that we want so we are really

thankful to mehul sir. And even while working sometimes we thought to give

up .but he is always there to wake up us.

Some things we don’t realize at the place or at that

Time but we could realize it afterwards.

Then we have started our work, we haven’t find difficulties in sketching

our ideas but afterwards we have to face a lot with the actual work, some

day even we can only cut tree trunks or bamboos. At first we are about 6 or

7 groups and 2 kit of tools so, I bring our kit. At first we are just thinking

about joinery and how we gone join the whole structure. We want that whole

structure stands on the middle trunk but that’s not possible so we are

thinking on side joineries. So we thought to put two cross bamboos on the

both side. And we cut all necessary bamboos and make joinery cuts. After

every some time we put whole frame on the center wood to see is if any thing

going wrong.

Then come for upper bamboo joints this is not

issue for us because we have decided that we will

make 2 of one bamboo and upper side we will put

visibly. So we have put it like that and our

abhishekbhai decided to tie with netar strips and

we also agree to him... And then whole structure is

visually ready.

But still this is not appropriate for sitting. It

was shaking because we forgot to Give that cross joints. So finally we

decided that when we Going to install it at that time only we make it perfect

by struking All four sides into land.

But, this is not enough, in our very first

design we are going to put roof over our

sitting so after installing our sitting

perfectly we are thinking that how we can

make that umbrella type of roof. But suddenly

we saw this kind of bending bamboo strips. So

found other 3-4 that kind of strips and decided

to make ignu kind of hut. And within a half a

day we make that hut. So our sitting is now

looking perfect.

One other exercise is individual for all.

So I have decide to make this kind of chair .i

don’t want use wood I want to again use

bamboo that’s why I have choose this

design.

I have cut all bamboo sticks and place in a

certain way that it doesn’t look like that it

was a iron chair before. So again I used

netar strips for joineries, nupur helped me

to complete this chair .

What I have learned?

Some times some basic people or basic things can teach you

more than any one else. That’s happens with me in basic design

In the process may we can’t learn some things or can’t understand

but later on you will really realize that what you missed out and

what you have learn. My visual perception, creative thinking,

artistic view, all creates by only basic design. I was really very

bad at drawing but basic design makes me good at that. But its all

happen because of a good teachers…thank you all…

Thank you>>> JAGDIP SIR
