Downloaded from hlayiso.com Design/P2 3 DBE/November 2023 NSC BRIEF/THEME 1: DESIGN FOR SOCIAL WELFARE THE BRIEF: The Aryan Benevolent Home (ABH), situated in Chatsworth, Durban, is a non-profit organisation (NPO) and a public benefit organisation (PBO) that was founded in 1921. ABH is a social welfare organisation that provides sanctuary to vulnerable and homeless persons. They have eight facilities operating 24-hour services which include caring for neglected, abused or orphaned children, the elderly, domestic violence survivors, and differently abled persons. ABH has a theatre, a learning centre, dining facilities and after-care services for older children. The home also has an accredited healthcare education programme that empowers caregivers in the community with skills to care for their elderly and sick. Unlike other non-profit organisations, the ABH struggles to raise funds to continue enriching the lives of the residents. Additionally, many of their facilities are in need of refurbishing and/or restoration. These facilities require innovative design solutions to re-design various aspects of their existing facilities, while constantly improving the environment of the ABH. You may also create completely new design solutions that add value to the work of the ABH. Based on the existing principles of the mission of the ABH, create (an) inspired innovative design solution(s) for the ABH. Your design can help to raise funds, improve the environment of the home and/or rebrand the home. Alternatively, you may create design solutions that add value to the work of any other existing NPO/PBO from your province that does similar work to the Aryan Benevolent Home (ABH). CASE STUDY: Aryan Benevolent Home (ABH) You are required to do research on the Aryan Benevolent Home, its purpose, mission and the history behind its origins and the various designs that it can inspire. Do searches on the internet to study websites of other organisations similar to the ABH to guide you with your research. This research must be presented as part of your sourcebook/workbook of Topic 1. Refer to the criteria for the design process and final product together with the assessment guidelines. Create a Visual Communication/Information Design and/or Digital Design solution, which could include a rebranding of the existing corporate identity of the ABH. This could consist of a logo, letterhead and business card. You could also design packaging for food parcels, a promotional short video of the ABH, and a T-shirt or sweater design for volunteers of the home, etc. Another possibility could involve a poster campaign (with a series of posters) promoting the various facilities within the ABH, e.g. the Pattundeen Theatre or ABH Charity Store. Designers may also re-design the ABH's existing social media pages, such as Facebook and Instagram. You may also design navigational signage that helps visitors and residents find their way around the ABH facilities, e.g. indicate where the Educare Centre or dining facilities are located.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Design/P2 4 DBE/November 2023 NSC Create a Surface Design or Two-dimensional Craft Design solution that improves the existing facilities of the ABH, e.g. wallpapers for communal areas and bedrooms, textile fabric to be used for curtains, duvet covers, chairs and children's beds, apron designs for kitchen staff or caregivers' uniforms. This could also be a surface pattern solution that assists elderly patients with dementia to remember where to locate objects within their rooms or teaches Educare Centre learners how to read. Create a Product Design or Three-dimensional Craft Design solution that can be purchased at the ABH Charity or curio store that are part of the ABH's fundraising initiatives and specific events, such as the annual Radiothon or fundraising gala dinner. You could also design a product that can be used within the facility, e.g. a name badge for caregivers or create an innovative multifunctional crocheted blanket for wheelchair- bound residents using the corporate identity colours of the ABH or jewellery promoting the ABH Centenary. Designers can also design cutlery and crockery to be used within the dining facilities, bedroom lamps for residents and playroom items. Chandeliers for the dining area or other innovative lighting solutions for the ABH Computer Centre can also be created. Designers can use traditional African craft techniques or influences to create these products. Create an Environmental Design solution such as a play area for the Educare Centre or a socialising area for the elderly residents. Design or revamp a theatre space or landscape to add value to the NPO/PBO. These facilities help create a sense of belonging and safety for residents. GLOSSARY: DESIGN FOR SOCIAL WELFARE Non-profit organisation: A non-profit organisation is a group organised for purposes other than generating profit and in which no part of the organisation's income is distributed to its members, directors or officers. Public benefit organisation: The difference between an NPO and a PBO is that the latter stands for a public benefit organisation. Sanctuary: Protection or a safe place, especially for someone or something being chased or hunted. Differently abled person: Differently abled is often described in terms of a lack of normal functioning of physical, mental or psychological processes. It is also defined as learning difficulties or difficulties in adjusting socially, which interfaces with a person's normal growth and development. Do NOT copy the examples given.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Design/P2 10 DBE/November 2023 NSC BRIEF/THEME 2: DESIGN FOR AN ECO-LODGE THE BRIEF: Eco-lodges (environmentally sustainable accommodation) are rapidly gaining popularity as travellers look to help preserve the environment and contribute to growing local economies. Unlike eco-lodges, traditional hotels, hostels and game lodges have a negative impact on the environment. The creation of eco-lodges together with green travel gives travellers the option to positively improve their environments while experiencing the beauty of nature and ensuring sustainability of the Earth's resources. Eco-tourism is more than installing solar systems and reducing waste; it has grown to also include community development and the protection of indigenous cultural traditions. Local communities are exposed to improved employment opportunities, infrastructure development and better community resources and facilities. Create an innovative design/design product for an eco-lodge which addresses the impact it has on the environment and the community. Do research on eco-lodges in South Africa and abroad. Refer to eco-conscious travel blogs and articles that discuss the impact of tourism on the environment. What makes them different from the usual holiday lodge? How are you going to encourage or sell your eco-lodge concepts/designs to tourists? This research must be presented as part of your sourcebook/workbook of TOPIC 1. Refer to the criteria for the design process and final product together with the assessment guidelines. TIP: Define the type of eco-lodge you are going to design for. Use a spider diagram and be specific about where it is situated, who the clientele will be, and what the mission of the eco-lodge will be. Create a Visual Communication/Information Design and/or Digital Design solution that could be used by an eco-lodge OR promote eco-travel. For example, create or consider a bespoke, environmentally friendly corporate identity for an eco-lodge which could include a logo, letterhead, business card, packaging, brochure, a short video advertisement promoting the ethics of the eco-lodge OR environmentally friendly signage for an eco-lodge. Create a Surface Design or Two-dimensional Craft Design solution that is eco- friendly, promotes eco-tourism and can be used by an eco-lodge of your choice. For example, wallpapers that specifically interpret the mission/ethos of your chosen type of eco-lodge, textile fabric, or any other surface pattern solutions that address the problems created by tourism or promote eco-tourism. Create a Product Design or Three-dimensional Craft Design solution for use by an eco-lodge that will consider the problems of sustainability by educating guests about the importance of eco-living, e.g. a biodegradable sling bag with the eco-lodge's corporate identity. You could also design furniture or crockery using sustainable materials or that promote local cultural style and techniques, etc. Copyright reserved Please turn over
Downloaded from hlayiso.com Design/P2 11 DBE/November 2023 NSC Create an Environmental Design solution that can be integrated into an eco-lodge which will draw attention to eco-tourism, e.g. a 'green' bathroom with a calm and serene ambience, built with sustainable materials and with water restrictions in mind. The water from the bathroom may be harvested for use in the garden. You could design and create a bespoke architectural model of an eco-lodge or a window display advertising your eco-lodge. Refer to the criteria for the design process and final product together with the assessment guidelines. GLOSSARY: DESIGNING FOR AN ECO-LODGE Eco-lodge: Accommodation that consciously makes an effort to preserve the environment and contribute to local economies, while minimising the impact on natural environments and local populations Eco-tourism: A tourism sector that promotes environmentally and socially responsible travel Green travel: A means of travel that positively contributes to the environment while simultaneously experiencing the richness and beauty of nature Infrastructure: The built environment Solar system: An alternative means of generating electricity with sun power Unethical tourism: Tourism that intentionally disregards maintaining the environment and societies it interacts with The following images are examples that show products designed for eco-lodges in the different design categories.
