Journal 2

I designed the learning commons as shown in the image attached is because after knowing about what learning common is and what it means to the community having a great learning commons, I imagined a Learning commons where people can study well, enjoy the entertainment provided and have a great place to socialize.

The quiet zone is designed for whoever want to take a rest in an enclosed space with assured privacy. The Music spot is designed for people who likes to play their music louder than normal which sometimes will bother others within the shared public space. The chair will prevent the music to be heard and disturb other people.

The Vending machines with hot and cold meals and beverages are for the people who love to have something to eat every second, however, most learning commons doesn't allow food and drinks so I also wanted a closed area where people can enjoy their food and drinks freely while studying.

The games room is for whoever feels like they want to race with their friends suddenly. There is a time limit to everyone in order to give everyone a chance to play. Booking service should also be applied.

These services are expensive, therefore, some learning commons services can only be used by members, for example, the VR experience lab are only offered to games room members.
