For this project, we were asked to create an outdoor bench that could be used at our campus. For our design, we designed to go with a basic bench, but with flower planters on the side. We noticed by the music room at our school that there was very little color, with muddy concrete and puddles building up, leading to an ugly area to walk around in. We figured this would be a good spot to add some plants and make the ground look nicer. We began building a model from cardboard, and got to work with a materials list and budget. Our bench turned out to be very inexpensive, and in the end looked great with the model completed.

 Reflection:
I think we did a great job designing the bench, and I felt like we did good with communication and contributing to the design process. We could have been better with focusing and paying attention though, as I felt like there were a lot of distractions. In the end, the bench design was good and it was a fun project.
