“Home for duckweed”
With the rapid development of social economy and urbanization process, the flow of Chinese population is increasingly aggravated, and the demand of medical travel is also growing.
The Ronald McDonald House
Existing measures
To provide free temporary accommodation for families of patients with no fixed residence and difficulties. Set up a "Loving Home"
The project focuses its perspective on the accommodation of family members of non-local patients. Through in-depth searches and field visits, the project aims to build a convenient and practical platform that can respond to specific user situation and find suitable accommodation for duckweed-like patients. The project aims to create a platform that integrates private hotel accommodation information, in order to pass word-of-mouth information and resources through private channels and by centralized, systematic, and user-friendly means of delivery. The project aims to make
Medical travel :
the medical treatment behavior of the insured person occurred outside the area of the insured
One-time off-site medical treatment
Medical treatment in different places caused by production and management
Long - term placement of retirees in different places medical treatment
Go to another place for treatment
83.6%
The problem
The success rate of free accommodation application is low and the number of accommodation is limited
On the surface, it provides convenience, but in fact, it intensifies the housing problem of family members.
Design Opportunities:
A "home away from home" (10 rooms) within 20 meters of the hospital for families of sick children who seek medical treatment in different places
Before it was established, it was illegal leasing of some apartment buildings
By the end of July 2021, the Ronald McDonald House in Hunan had served 602 families free of charge. The Ronald McDonald House in Shanghai has provided free service to 54 families, a total of 656 families providing more than 29,000 restful nights, saving nearly 8 million yuan of living expenses for the families.
From a social perspective, as the leading industry of the fast food into the medical charity the event itself has a lot of satire, and McDonald's uncle will partition between the group of rent is transformed only ten houses for families, provides the convenience on the surface, but in fact reducing the number of the house more intensified the family housing problem.This is the prevailing false humanism of our time
On street corners in Beijing, it is not uncommon to see a group of people with accents from all over the world, accompanied by sick children. At the shabby breakfast place down the road, someone was buying breakfast. These customers don't care about what they eat, but what they can eat.
There is a hutong near my home, often going back and forth will see all kinds of shabby shops, occasionally ask, is from far away to see the doctor,
Most of them come from Shandong, Hebei, Inner Mongolia, Tibet and other places
The phenomenon of seeking medical treatment in different places is mainly due to the imbalance of regional economic development
Reason
Family members of patients do not choose to stay out, they will choose to rest in the hospital corridors or adjacent corners
In a more discreet way, Snapchat provides information about small hotels in gray areas for needy families Provide a platform for patients with difficulties to communicate online and offline, and carry out second-hand trade of idle goods Use toys to relieve the psychological pressure of children, to find a house to relieve the economic pressure and psychological pressure of parents
Conclusion:
Through the in-depth investigation of the current situation and field visits, we hope to build a convenient and practical platform that can combine the specific situation of users, and find suitable accommodation for the duckweeds like medical seekers.
Design Challenges:
To build an integrated private small hotel lodging information platform, word of mouth information and resources through private channels, to provide centralized, systematic and humanistic way to users, make mental and physical suffering of their patients are more easily to find direction, at the same time at the moment of life and death struggle and suffering for them the opportunity to drop the anchor and care.
Low investment in medical resources The doctor-patient contradiction Lack of humanistic care
I interviewed some family members who came out of town to see the doctor, and some hotel owners
Mr. Zhao and his family have been in the dermatology clinic for three days and nights. They lie together and take up half the aisle
“Why not a small hotel?”
“Because close, here is good, also can't sleep too long, after treatment, we took the train to go.”
Some of them still choose to fight guerrilla war with hospitals, sleeping in some of the hospital's more remote corridors.The dermatology clinic is lightly guarded and warm .Currently in the midst of the epidemic, the park is under strict control, blocking off some areas where family members often camp and sleep on the floor. A ring of iron gate was nailed to the place where tents were often set up before, and in winter, the park of Nanlisi Road seemed particularly deserted.
Then I visited some of the small hotels that parents often talk about. The owners were not very enthusiastic.
The first was to ask the security guard at the children's hospital, who gave me the number of some cheap hotels. The boss answered the phone quickly, and then through the phone for me to guide the route, seven twists and turns to walk for more than ten minutes, then came to a narrow Hu Tong kou, went into is a relatively old apartment building, there is no outside door face, a layer of Windows posted a "second floor hotel" words.
Walk toward the inside, THE kitchen is very small, a little bit of a small corridor, the room is not partition, but are very narrow, the bathroom is public, sanitary conditions are very poor
The second time was to go to what my parents called a cheap hotel
"There are two rooms left, a single room is 78 a night, and a double bed is 100. Which one do you think you want?"
"I want to see the room. "
"I want to stay here for one day, my family is on the way, if the hotel is good, I will come to stay tomorrow. Can you check your hotel online? "
"Can not find, my home is a public accommodation out, before also some people said to see a doctor to live, later asked more people, now can rent"
When I asked to see the room first, the boss looked a little impatient and told me to go inside. The two rooms on the left side of the room were empty. Took a walk, watched the small hotel landscape, by the way, is the place that take the door with a table appear narrow at the front desk, the door of the left hand side has a about 2, 3 square meters room used for kitchen, balcony should be originally, the front desk to go is a very narrow corridor, the room is not make a partition, but are very narrow. The two rooms saw basically had a small bed and a small cabinet full. The toilets were communal, unisex, and unsanitary.
Not sure how to find the right place to live Ask nearby security guards, restaurants and other ways to find the hotel
The hotel service was rather cold
The hotel is poor and the space is small
There was no formality at the hotel

Li Hong male 38 years old Henan Farmer
Family: A family of three. The daughter was ill and needed to go to Beijing for medical treatment
"Where can stay when go to Beijing to see a doctor? It's a big cost."
Description:
Li Hong farms in Henan province and sells his own produce as his main source of income. It was the first time came to Beijing. I was completely unfamiliar with Beijing. I spent all my family's savings to see a doctor for my child, and had no extra money to prepare a place for myself.
Pain points:
First time in Beijing, strange
Online hotel prices are too high Close to the hotel but hard to find
Public areas are under strict control due to the epidemic. There are too few rooms for public welfare accommodation, which is difficult to apply for.
Expectation: when seeking medical treatment in Beijing, it is convenient to check in, the location is close to the hospital, the price is cheap the environment is acceptable; Can ensure rest and energy in the process of medical treatment;
Influencing factors: convenience, location, price, configuration; Information channels: on-site booking, network information, patient recommendation, hospital information
Local restaurants and supermarkets within a radius of 1 kilometer around the hospital where the patient is treated will serve as distribution places, and paper toys will be combined (double-sided adhesive tape is provided, and QR-code is in the double-sided adhesive tape) entrance to the platform

Family: Husband and wife live together. The son suffers from leukemia and needs to seek medical treatment in Beijing for a long time
"I have to stay in Beijing for a month to see a doctor this time. have been to Beijing before. The accommodation there is really too much for me."
Description:
Zhang Cheng works outside for a living. His son has leukemia and needs to be hospitalized in Beijing for a long time. The treatment in different places is normal, and housing is a problem. Every time he goes to hospital in another place, he has to spend a lot of time looking for a place to live.
Pain points: If you choose a hotel with poor conditions, the burden will increase Public welfare accommodation only provides short-term accommodation with cumbersome procedures and stringent conditions
Expectations: Long-term medical care costs a lot, hoping to reduce the cost of housing. Cheap price is the primary factor, the best position can be close to the hospital, the environment can choose a better;
Influencing factors: price, convenience, location, configuration; Information channels: on-site booking, network information, patient recommendation, hospital information

Mood journey
Expensive, the price of clear information is few -- anxiety, worry, tired and busy -- no fruit, disappointed and confused -- finally find a suitable location but the hardware is too poor -- room resources too little to consider too much can only choose to live in -- narrow, difficult to wash -- worry about hygiene problems -- environment noisy influence rest -- tired, tired heart, Mentally stressedleaving the city in a bad state
Pain points
Hotels are too expensive and difficult to find in different places -- hospitals do not provide information about nearby accommodation, and people are forced to rest on the spot because they are too busy to consider their own accommodation. Cheap hotels are difficult to consult, and there is no relevant platform. It's a waste of time and energy. The number of places offered by the charities involved is minimal, the application is cumbersome -- the accommodation in small private hotels is poor, and even safety is not guaranteed -- the space is cramped, adding to the anxiety -- the hygiene is not guaranteed, the food and water are not safe -- the environment is noisy, All kinds of pipes and peeling walls make it hard to sleep -- the first trip from a small hotel to a hospital is unfamiliar. The lack of a good rest during the trip affects subsequent medical treatment leaving tired and lacking in recuperation

BackgroundIn a mysterious place, hidden is an unknown society -- the Sebo society, where people are divided into di erent levels, and the lowest level of human beings are not eligible to eat fresh vegetables, so they in order to change the status quo, eat fresh vegetables, began their disguise road···
Farm”
This project addresses the food needs of the underprivileged in the future of the cyber world. The project makes bold predictions based on the modern food supply and the monopoly of industrial agriculture: the people at the bottom of the heap will be reduced to social idlers with no value to be harvested in the cyber world, completely cut o from the farmland and smoke. So the project tries to give them a utopian eld, with a series of vertical planting designs and auxiliary equipment for hidden urban underground Wells.
What kind of imagination is Cybersociety?
Based on reality, it extends to a certain preset direction and magni es the in uence of social phenomena/science and technology with literary techniques to achieve the purpose of revealing/satirizing. The cyberpunk world usually has advanced science and technology, but the social structure has a certain degree of collapse, the gap between the rich and the poor is extremely widening, leading to the degradation of human nature.
In the cyberpunk world, mechanical prosthetics, bionic man, arti cial intelligence and brain-mechanical interaction are common, re ecting the development of the physical world. What is not equal is the backwardness of the spiritual world.
At present, the speed visible to the naked eye, the next form of human society is - the post-capitalist stage under the new authoritarianism of cyberpunk pyramidal social hierarchy + advanced technology + a sci- future with low desire for nipples
There are four levels of society:
People at the top Upper science and technology organization
They had access to fresh food, water, electricity and labor
Ecosphere 2:
The Biosphere 2 experiment is where scientists hope to recreate the Earth's biosphere in a completely arti cial way and keep the ecosystem running smoothly.
Master the technology of the industry of the city. He is responsible for the development of facilities, services, and food for top-level people, such as robots and human transformation technologies......
Middle class person People at the bottom
They can accept the technology of "transforming people" to transform their bodies, have the technology of operating robots, and work with some precision instruments (belonging to the upper level workers).
Everything is produced for the upper level, but the middle level people can share a small amount of fresh vegetables, food and so on
Because the body function is not as good as the robot, the job is replaced and they can only do the lowest level work (brainwashed by the top level, as long as they do the bottom level work seriously and do not resist, they can accept the transformation and be promoted to the middle level). The lowest level people who guarantee the number of human reproduction can not eat any fresh food, and the food is only the protein worm after grinding. Made of meat-like things, injected with di erent pigments and taste elements, is a di erent taste of daily food, the supply is limited.
Mechanized transformation of people:
For those with physical disabilities, mechanical limbs can help them make up for the physical de ciencies, but the mechanized transformation is an endless process. Once the human body is completely mechanized, will the human still be human? But mechanization may be the only way humans can catch up with AI.
Vertical farms:
Vertical farms are production systems that produce agricultural products at vertically stacked levels or integrated in other structures, such as skyscrapers, warehouses or shipping containers. The idea behind vertical farming is to use indoor farming techniques and environmental controls to create the arti cial environment plants need to grow. The technologies included are: arti cial lighting, environmental control (humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide gas, etc.), and water and fertilizer control. In addition to growing crops, some systems have developed a self-sustaining method of aquaponics. Water from the plants is recycled into the tanks, and the sh waste becomes fertilizer for the plants. Finally, plants and sh can be harvested for food.
To complete this ambitious project, scientists built a man-made enclosed ecosystem and biocycle in the Oracle area north of Tucson, Arizona, between 1987 and 1989, covering an area of 13,000 square meters. Some 4,000 species have been introduced to mimic the Earth's ecological environment.
This process e ectively absorbs most of the carbon dioxide produced by the microbes, which indirectly leads to the depletion of oxygen in the entire environment. The plan later lost some credibility as oxygen and other supplies were replenished by the departure and return of the injured crew. The team clari ed that they had only brought plastic bags for the water supply, but there were allegations that they had brought food and other supplies.
At the same time, the internal ecology of Biosphere 2 changed a lot. The extinction of large numbers of pollinators, a species of tropical ants and cockroaches became the dominant species and took up some of the pollination responsibility; And because of rising carbon dioxide levels, the growth of pioneer species in parts of the rainforest has weakened the support of its branches and made them vulnerable to collapse.
