Using all the important information, several 2D sketches and 3D mockup model were produced and only one final design was selected based on the need of the childrens. The specification of the furniture was finally intergrated with anthropometric data for final design specifation prior to final fabrication of prototype (version 1) and mass production of the furniture for further testing and evaluation.
