9. Objective: create a portable tea house for at least two users. Tea
house can be made of any material and must be built full scale.
Concept: diamond in the rough
The main goal is to create a portable tea house made from
as many recycled materials as possible. The most abundant re-
cycled material discovered is the plastic store bag. In the right
design the bags are created to appear as a diamond in the
rough rather than just a plastic bag, often taken for granted. The
material is also light and easily transportable.

11. Objective- create a hotel, restaurant and activity of designers choice for the vacant hotel in
downtown Portland, Or. The hotel consist of five levels- basement, ground level and three
levels of hotel rooms. Three of the five levels are required to be designed.
The activity of the designers choice- must be something new to the Portland area to draw
Portlanders and visitors into the downtown area.
Concept- a twist of sevens.
The users can come to the hotel to enjoy dinner, relax in spacious hotel room, and/or put
a few dollars in a slot machine. Bringing a casino to the area is a great new idea. Often
Portlanders talk of going from a few hours out of town to the nearest casino or all the way
to Vegas to dine, gamble and relax. The users can pick which activity they choose to attend.
They are not required to eat, gamble and stay at the hotel but the idea is one stop entertain-
ment like a typical casino consist of. The spaces are clearly separated from one another for
users to pick and choose which activities they want to participate in.
