About Elves Primary Function: Set ng mga Kagamitan sa Camping

Ang Elves ay isang set ng mga kagamitan sa camping na dinisenyo upang bawasan ang epekto sa kapaligiran. Kasama sa set ang isang solar powered na fire pit, isang drip coffee brewer, mga kagamitan sa pagkain at isang nakabitin na ilaw. Ang fire pit ay nagbibigay ng lugar para sa pag-iihaw ng marshmallow at natitiklop para sa madaling paghahatid. May nakabaong mga ilaw sa bawat piraso, na bumubuo ng mga dekoratibong disenyo na pumapalit sa table cloth at lumilikha ng magandang atmospera pagkatapos magdilim. Ginagamit ang kahoy ng oak, bakal at PLA para sa mga produkto, na may manipis na karton para sa packaging. Inaanyayahan ng set ang mga pamilya na magtipon sa labas nang hindi nagdaragdag ng carbon emissions.

Design Challenge: It is a challenge to balance the simplicity of camping gear and the romantic of the ambiance lighting.
Research: In order to elevate the camping experience, I researched about both camping and glamping. I interviewed 5 glampers and campers, plus one expert who owns a glampground. The method I used in the interviews is card sorting, timeline, and Dixit deck. The insight I got is: lighting is essential to a campground. People care about whether it is photogenic because they want to post glamorous experiences on social media.
Inspiration: Glamping is an activity that can be financially out of reach for many. “Elves” elevates the camping experience through simple pleasures that are created through diversified outdoor activities. Today's busy lifestyle can make eating together a challenge, but the benefits of gathering as a family are worth the effort. “Elves” encourages us to gather around the campfire and around the dinner table, satisfying the fundamental need of communal belonging that we all share. It's what makes us “human”.
Project Duration: The project started and finished in Fall,2020, in China
Operation Flow: “Elves” has lights embedded in the S’more Pit, Coffee Brewer, Tableware, and Hanging Light, “Elves” creates a strong ambiance in nature, replacing the table cloth through decorative light patterns.
