atom07:Experiment

The different set ups we tried were:

- The open set up like it always is. People can only sit next to each other.

- A diverse set up with different ways to group the benches, the different distances between the opposing benches were tested here. Testing intimate space.

- A complete random set up with all elements spread through the area.

- An obstructive set up, here people are not provided with a logical seating place.

- An uncomfortable set up, we only used the wooden blocks and moved the chairs to the side.

conclusions:

- People are willing to make a bigger effort to have a comfortable seat.

- It is nice to have a diverse arangement of spaces, caters for larger user group.

- People will sit close to their point of interest (lecture, other person, nearest bench on approach, etc).
