'Flat Pack Bag Pack' is the title for project 2. I was so thrilled to start this project as it was something that I have never tried before. As exciting as it sounds, this project is about giving the homeless or catastrophe victim a portable shelter and acts as a survival tool to survive harsh environments in the street of Georgetown.

| The shelter |
We were divided into small groups of 5 and I'm so glad that all of my teammates cooperated wholeheartedly in this project. There were a few criteria needed to be followed in designing the shelter such as easy to fold and retract, lightweight yet strong and stable, it should occupy for both day and night and materials used must be from recycling materials.

New knowledge that I gained from this project is the study of anthropometrics, design consideration based on the homeless circumstances and their needs in daily life regarding the shelter. I was super satisfied with our work, from the design to the boards completed by us. Developing new ideas was not an easy task especially when working in a group and we managed to get an agreement in term of design and everything. I am also very delighted and grateful that we won first place on the day of the presentation.
