SOCIAL CONCEPT
INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
An interpersonal relationship is a strong, deep, or close association or acquaintance
between two or more people that may range in duration from brief to enduring. This
association may be based on inference, love, solidarity, regular business interactions, or
some other type of social commitment. Interpersonal relationship are formed in the
context of social, cultural and other influences. The context can vary from family,
couples, or kinship relations, friendship, marriage, relations with associates, work, clubs,
neighborhoods, and places of worship. They may be regulated by law, custom, or mutual
agreement, and are the basis of social groups and society as a whole.
THE DESIGN OF THE CAFE
The main reason we design this cafe is for people to enjoy and relax. This is an indoor
and outdoor cafe. The main reason that there are a lot of plants surrounding the cafe is to
provide shades and also green scenery. The main priority is to make comfortability of the
customers comes first and also to have a more convenient place to hang out referring to
the placing and position of the furniture.

SUNLIGHT DIRECTIONS
Based on the site analysis of sunlight direction of the cafe, we put the kitchen in the west
side of the cafe, this is due to sunlight at the west side is the hottest one because of sunset.
The main purpose we put the kitchen there is we doesnt want the sunlight to affect the
customers.
This is the sunlight from the north side which is approximately 11am to 1pm. The sun is
the brightest in this time. People will choose to sit at the cold area instead of sit at the hot
area. People will sit at the south to west side of the cafe to have their lunch or tea.
When the sunlight is from the west side, the east side of the cafe will be the cold area.
People will choose to sit at the east side to relax and enjoy the scenery of sunset.
