“This is an opportunity for anyone concerned about the health and well-being of future generations to focus on the power of parks when it comes to mental health promotion, and to figure out what we can do to make sure all segments of the population have access to enjoy the health-related benefits that parks can provide,” says Lincoln Larson, an associate professor of parks, recreation, and tourism management at North Carolina State University.

As my third intervention was located in the park, the experience enhanced me to dig in.

• A study has shown that the restrictions on time in outdoor parks at the beginning of the pandemic took a toll on young people’s mental wellbeing.
• A second study has also shown that as young people’s outdoor activity participation decreased during the pandemic, their connection to nature decreased as well.
• Researchers say this is part of a growing body of evidence outlining the role of outdoor activities in the mental health of children and young adults.
• It’s important to find new ways to communicate the benefits of parks, to fuel healthier lifestyles.

There were 10 younger East Asians who came to my second intervention. The studio space recommended a maximum of 15 people but with 10 people in the studio, it was very cozy. For future interventions or events, I need to do field research on the event space, as it is crucial for the experience. Measuring the location space and usability for events and guests It is also a very important consideration in the preliminary research and planning. 

1. What do you think about metaverse sustainability? How it works?

Scarlett said the production of metaverse fashion do help us save 97% of the energy. But to truly make it sustainable we need to make sure people who purchase one digital fashion clothing doesn’t buy one clothes offline. Other wise it still won’t change the situation. 

So the solution to make carbon neutral future not just keep creating the metaverse fashion but also need to educate people. 

2. Do you think Asian younger generation have the awareness of sustainability? Or eco-friendly actions? 

 After i ask this to Scarlett she keep knock her head. Obviously the answer is no. So I asked her the following questions, 

3. Do you think metaverse can raise their awareness on eco-friendly lifestyle? 

 The fashion brand itself should have the awareness so they don’t produce harmful products. 

4. Do you think luxury brand event can be a good platform to educate younger generation? 

 That would work, and younger generation needs education with this fast changing industry!

There’s a workshop/event call ‘Can you?’

Retailers are innovating with store design features that encourage customers to slow down and relax, boosting brand affinity through appreciation of an environment designed to allow them space to recharge. An antidote to the turbo-charged speed of everyday life and social media, this is about giving permission to find moments of rest within the context of retail, which is especially important during a day-long family outing.

Opened in September 2021, Uniqlo’s Rue de Rivoli store in Paris has a library corner on the top floor featuring comfortable places to sit and plenty to read, from picture books to art books. It keeps younger children occupied while their parents shop, or is simply a space to escape the busy city outside.

Seoul’s largest department store, The Hyundai Seoul, takes this concept to the next level, incorporating rest into the design of the entire space, with 49% of it given over to recreation.

This restful aspect of retail is helping to accommodate a broad shift towards wellbeing, going beyond simple seating areas to incorporate design features such as more natural light, open spaces and biophilic elements that create a sense of sanctuary.

This log I will be present my project ‘Experience Engagement Framework’

Here I will introduce my project research design and types of research I use.

Here is the log on define my MA question solution space:

Here’s three main system in my project, Microsystem, Exosystem and Macrosystem.

Microsystem – Congregation, Workplace

(with in the fashion industry my project would be applicable and can be influence or build up the mindset in creative agencies, luxury brands.)

Organisational Exosystem – Government & Institutions, Political Parties, Corporations

(part of my project primary action is based on ‘Paris Agreement’ signed in 2016 about decarbonising.)

Macrosystem – National Identity, Culture Belonging

(help the East Asian younger generation to have deeper connection with nature, and educate them about circular consumption. Therefore lead them to have a eco-friendly lifestyle and to achieve carbon neutral future.)

After the clay workshop I decided to organise an outdoor frisbee event to inspire East Asian younger generation by building a deeper connection with our nature space. In order to raise their awareness and guiding them to love our planet. Therefore, they can apply actions.

From my research, I realised the East Asian younger generation lack of outdoor activities due to busy study schedule and insufficient outdoor space.

From research I found out that the percentage of  EAGs who do outdoor activities lowered after the pandemic (Oleniacz, 2021). This may be one of the reasons for the lack of awareness as they are not as in touch with nature. Therefore, this secondary research led me to organise my final intervention which is an outdoor frisbee activity. To test out if creating deeper connections between nature the younger generations’ would have increased their awareness on sustainability. From a survey done by China Dialogue,  it showed that 60% of young Chinese people said they were “fairly familiar with climate change”, these respondents’ understanding of the issues may not be particularly accurate (Mengnan, 2021).
