The task was to explore and observe transitional spaces, which can be interpreted in a variety of ways.
From a space where people transit, to a space that is in a state of transition itself, a transition between two different social spaces (private and public) or the mental distances caused by social statuses, the students had to identify what people were doing, how they were doing it, and most importantly, why they were doing it. The latter is where speculation and judgment most often occur. In order to later design solutions based on real needs, assumptions must be proven, or more importantly, disproven, through in depth observation and interviews of the people involved.
