6 Best Design Ideas

From the 101 ideas that we already make, the teacher ask to choose six best design solution which after that we can try to combine each other and see the pros and cons. Here are my group six best ideas.


First Idea - Make a standing bus, no seat at all
Standing bus will provide more space, because there is no seat at all and people will have no choice but to stand. And this will also reduce the people from not moving in. but there are many cons which people might experience which is tiring, if people have a long journey on the bus, also the elder will be disadvantaged by this standing bus because they need to sit. Not to mention, there is a safety issue which is caused by this standing bus, people will tend to fall when the bus is turning.

Second Idea - Make a conveyor belt inside the bus
This conveyor belt will provide both comforts for the people and the solution for the moving in issue. People won’t have to move to move in, the bus. Once the bus is departing, the conveyor belt will be turned on and people on the front will automatically move to the back which will then provide space at the front. But there is a slight disadvantage in using the conveyor belt, which is people might get stuck in the belt if they are unaware or careless, which will be a big problem if it occurs.

Third Idea - Change the design of the seat from chair into bench
This redesign of seats in the bus will be able to fit more people to because it is a bench, so there’s no limit on how many people should sit in one of the bench. Unlike chairs which is separated one by one.

Fourth Idea - Make more entrance door
More entrance door means it will be so much easier to enter and exit if the bus is full. For example if there is entrance door at both sides, people can get in and out faster. They would not need to squeeze through if there is too many people on the bus. But it will reduce the space inside the bus.

Fifth Idea - Put entertainment at the back of the bus
By putting entertainment like television, music, etc. at the back, people will be attracted to move rather than just standing in front of the bus blocking the way. The bus will also be more interesting. But if they are too comfortable with their entertainment, they could miss the stop that they should be alighting on.

Sixth Idea - Make the bus three stories
By adding one more story to the bus, the bus would be able to accommodate more space for people. The bus will be less crowded than before. But people will have a problem in alighting because it will take long for them to go down to the first story which might cause them to miss their bus stop. And the bus would also have more limited access to areas which has height limit.
