- Production Technology
- Material: Taiwan domestic wood:acacia, incense cedar, Tochigi, Taiwan fir, camphor tree, and Asian fir. Production technology: CNC milling, lathe, manual polishing. Surface contact: baking paint uses environmentally friendly paint, and some retain the wood texture of wood.
- Design Challenge
- The density of a certain kind of wood is different, and some shapes cannot be made by CNC processing, which needs to be made by hand. The paint of different wood colors is slightly different than expected. In order to achieve the contour shapes and colors we wanted, the team tried and made many mistakes and finally came up with a good solution.
- Research
- Type of research: The four senses of learning, smell, sight and touch. Goal: Recognize wood and conservation concepts. Methods: Morphological analysis, wood material analysis, toy type size analysis. Data collection: market research and toy analysis for children aged 2 to 5 years. research tools: Solid Works, KeyShot.
- Inspiration
- The forests cover more than 30% of the earth's surface, due to climate change, excessive forest rafting and bushfires, global forests are facing an unprecedented severe crisis. Large-scale deforestation has drastically reduced the forest area that brings great impact to forest ecology. In echo to United Nation SGDs15, developed a set of educational learning toys to enhance children consciousness on the protection, conservation and restoration of the forestry and terrestrial ecology.
- Project Duration
- The project began in July 2019 and was completed in Tainan, Taiwan in March 2020.
- Operation Flow
- The teaching aids with conservation forest as the core, using assembly methods, first recognize the changes in terrain and altitude, then recognize the different species of trees in Taiwan, and use picture books to guide children into the context to play with toys. Learn through four senses-hearing, smell, vision, and touch. Children feel everything in the forest, and understand the forest from childhood education, and strengthen the concept of natural ecological conservation.
