Mind Mapping the Problem

At the Beginning,

we are task with a specific problem and to solve it together as a team.

to start things off,

a mind-map of the problem.

so what causes the short lifespan of furniture?

this is the the outcome of our group discussion

it may seem like an overly simplified mind-map because it is what it is.

we tried to keep things really simple for our audience/classmates to understand.

To break things down here, we believe some of the main causes are

• the people, as in the generation and the way of doing things now, the economic conditions, are we all about the new is always better? and least conserving as compare to the past etc.
• the quality of products, talks about choice of materials, craftsmanship, cost etc.
• the environment, where the furniture is placed, climate conditions, etc.
• the usage, how are the furniture being used, taken care of? methods of using etc.
• and the design, talks about mass production, poor designs, and designs that are not meant to last etc.
