Great concept, and a great way to encourage more outdoor activities and connections. 

Is it just the materials for the cover that you need help with or the over design? Wondering how your cover could help reduce accidental heat capture from the ground surface. Could an interesting pattern be incorporated into the material? A visual design that has significant meaning for your local community?

Just throwing some thoughts your way.

Hope this helps. 

Good morning UpRising. Congratulations on the development of your project. As one of this year's UpRising students, you have been invited to

UpRising @ Stone&Chalk - Program X - Tickets are open now.

Click here to get your ticket. https://events.humanitix.com/uprising-stone-and-chalk

Our big event for this year, UpRising@Stone&Chalk, July 14th Friday 10am to 2pm, and you get first dibs. This will be in the second week of the school holidays. It doesn't mess up your school time and makes it as easy as possible for you to get there. In a cool building, in an amazing place, in the heart of innovation in NSW.

There is a limit of 50 attendees, with the first invitations going to you, the UpRising students of 2023. If there are any spaces left by the end of this week, we will create a second round of invitations that you can pass onto a classmate from your design class. Please complete this survey if you haven't already to help us know exactly what you want to get from this opportunity. Teachers are most welcome to the event as well.

Congratulations Patrick on your fantastic efforts with your MDP, it has been great to be part of your design journey this year.

It would be fantastic if you could share an image of your final design if you get a chance to drop one in as an update of your post. Good luck with the submission of your project and adding any finishing touches this week, I am sure you will do great. 

We hope that you have learned a lot from being part of this year's UpRising and are excited to take your creativity and design thinking into the next steps in life, (which is exactly what business and industry are looking for.) Teachers, thank you for helping your students make the leap across the gap, from classroom to industry.

Business leaders, likewise it has been fantastic to connect with you, thank you for all of the support you have given to these young designers and helping to grow the innovation ecosystem in NSW. Breaking down the silos, together.
