Abstract

With more and more schools expanding and redesigning their landscape spaces, therefore their outdoor furniture’s shape, dimension, quality and usage are also changing and redesigning. One of the significant changes in the design process is to take users’ needs/concerns into account. This change is influenced by a community-based design concept found in public spaces design. In this paper, we propose a Design for Assembly (DFA) Procedure which is focus on examining the past practice of outdoor wooden furniture design in campus spaces by using Quality Function Deployment (QFD) to fill in this missing link. The employment of different matrices to capture the relationship between the voice of customer (VOC) and subsequent design and quality characteristics compose an?evaluation framework suitable to fill the gap in the assembly procedure of outdoor wooden frame furniture. The study also produces several insights applied on outdoor wooden furniture design in campus space.
