SKETCH

My idea is come from the bluetooth wireless speaker.

SOUND BLASTER ROAR

Compact Portable Bluetooth Wireless Speaker with NFC

Never before has such powerful and well-balanced audio come from a small compact booklet-sized speaker. With the Sound Blaster Roar, we've achieved the impossible by taking an impressive bi-amplified 5-driver system (including a kickass subwoofer) and shrinking it into a size no larger than a dictionary. The result: a speaker that is smaller, lighter, more stable and more powerful than any other speaker of its class. You'll have to hear it to believe it.

There are 3 personas including the workers , the interior designer and  student.They are all consider to living collectively of the reason to cut down the rental.They all were faced with different problems yet the same situation.Three of them faced the different problem which is limited space of room, the time of rest is different with her roommate and the owner touch her privacy with came in her room without her permission.

From the problem that they were given, they solved the problem in different ways. The interior designer was found that her problem was the space is too small and she is living with the other 2 peoples in this small space. As she is a designer so she was have an idea about the position of the furniture will effect to the space and she was install some multi-functional furniture. Fortunately, her roommate and her owner were consent the idea and support her with sharing the cost.The worker was faced the problem of privacy . Her owner was came in her room and opened her letter without her permission. She is very angry but she try to control her temper and try to talk nicely to her owner and the owner was never came into her room and touch her things without her permission already.The student was faced the problem that is she cannot turn on the light after 10pm because of her roommate was sleep earlier and she always done her homework until late. So, she prepared the desk lamp to continue do her homework. Even though she prepared her own desk lamp, but she still cannot continue her work at night because of her roommate was very sensitive to sound. Therefore, she wake up earlier and continue her homework by next morning.

After this occurrence , all of the 3 personas learned the same things although they faced different problem, they solved the problem by the same way which is tolerate with each other.They have discuss their idea or dissatisfaction to their roommate or owner. If they were not living collectively, they will never have this opportunity to learn how to get along with the other and solve the problem together.

per month and living in cooperative. So rental is the most important thing that she will 

consider before renting a room. Finally, her rental meets her budget. She is currently living 

and sharing a room with others two people in Ang Mo Kio. Living in cooperative has both its 

pros and cons. Pros can be share rental and resources, improve the skill for conflict 

resolution, stronger social networks and others. Cons include conflict, hygiene, noise, 

limited space and others. However, privacy is the most difficult problem that she faced

owner went into her room without permission. However, there's a rule in tenant contract 

shows that the owner must not check or simply go into her room. She was angry but she 

tried to control her temper. She talked to her nicely and then the owner never go into her 

room after all. Also, she has faced this problem from her roomate too. Her roomate has 

opened her letter without permission. She felt that this was a sign of disrespect of any way.
