Cafe au where sqh is the owner of a bookcafe after he finally gets all the money he was owe in loyalties with the help of sy's lawyer. Now that he has a stable income, he comes to his cafe to write his novel.

Mbj is a regular at the cafe only because the cute boy is always working there. He's a director at Northern Desert Co. And is set to take over after his father. He started coming to Melon Seed and Read Cafe because it was the closest to the company.

They started talking one day after sqh spilled coffee on him, and the whole time, mbj was nitpicking things about the Cafe that could be improved and he gets pleasantly surprised when the things he complains about get fixed soon after. Similar sqh complains about the workers from northern desert being mean to the workers and other customers, then suddenly they came in to apologize for their behavior.

The reveal that mbj is the heir to Northern Desert and sqh is the bookcafe owner would be epic. Like Northern Desert wants to work with local stores, including sqhs, to advertise some of their product. Sqh goes to the meeting and sees mbj there. They both freeze and realize that they have been talking shit about the company/cafe to the owner. The meeting is awkward, but sqh accepts the deal after his lawyer reviews it.

Mbj stopped coming to the cafe, and sqh thinks that it was because of what he's been saying about Northern Desert. When he finally comes back, sqh avoided him because it's clearly what mbj wants. Until one day, mbj pretends to walk into sqh spilling his coffee on sqh.

Being the gentleman he is, mbj offers sqh a change of clothes, and his apartment isn't too far from here, so they can go get it. What do you think happened when sqh gets to his apartment? 😏

"Y-yeah, I just really like their Norma-"

Week 3: Revised problem statement

Start Assignment

Progress since last week:

Revised thesis topic. Now focusing on implementing adaptive re-use with empty or underutilized buildings in downtown areas such as Boston. Work will include visiting sites of third places that are working well, failed third places, and empty buildings that have potential to be used as a third place. 

Programming and multiple forms of revenue are essential to a third place to be an environment that can pay their rent and still be a hub where the modality isn’t business first and people/community second. 

Case Study 1: Knight’s Move (Brookline, MA)

Successful third place where there is the presence of regulars, newcomers, and multiple revenue models, well embedded within their local community, promotes socialization and entertainment through being a board game cafe. 

Case Study 2: Ryder Grad Studio (Boston, MA)

Failed third place that is meant to exist as a room to rest, socialize, and entertain outside of classrooms. Lack of programming to build cohort bonding and mingling between the two programs XD and IDDV

Case Study 3: Random building in Downtown Boston (Boston, MA)

Implement hypotheses and ideas that would work in the building to create a third place. 

Case Study 4: Trident Bookcafe 

Attempts to be a third place with programming, revenue, and actively advertising themselves as a third place but has tactics such as limiting sitting time etc. preventing people from feeling invited or welcome to stay. 

Problem:

The disappearance of physical third places for people that are seeking community and a place to relax, socialize, and enjoy themselves. 

I.e. People that are actively seeking a place to exist that isn’t home, work, or school.

The thesis project will enable the creation of a third place that embraces and practices the values of a third place. 

*Further literature review and thinking in progress for a list or description of what exactly the values of a third place are. 

The values of a third place are about making people feel welcome. In the third space, everyone can come in, stay as long as they want, and feel encouraged to return often and invite friends.

Rationale: 

Third places are disappearing because they aren’t maintaining a modality that is balancing the needs of a business to make revenue but also ensuring that their environment isn’t unwelcoming or has a “barrier to access”.

Significance: 

I think the problem is actually a huge issue and is ever growing. Especially post-pandemic people yearn for connection, a place to be/exist, and simply to talk or do things. However, the current existing third places are all built for business first and aren’t exactly promoters of socialization or establishing new bonds and connections. Cafes, bars, and gyms are not ideal third places nor should they be expected to. Third places need to embrace the values that are defined by being a third place instead of merely wearing a costume of a third place while otherwise being a regular business. 

Evidence:

I feel pretty comfortable in my analysis due to constantly seeing an overwhelming number of ads focused on promoting “community, bonding, socializing, and going places”. The existence of social clubs itself is also a factor contributing to my belief that the need and demand for third places is growing. The establishment of organizations such as Volo and TimeLeft further exemplifies the desire for relationship-building and meeting people in general in locations outside of home, work, and school. Everything leads to being outside and at another location. 

Design Strategies: 

Research and observe then see what changes can be made to revitalize the presence and number of third places available to people. Changes may include proposing a framework/methodology and/or implementing certain design changes.

Design Direction:

The project will take advantage of observing or even experimenting with the aforementioned study locations and try to narrow down and define what exactly makes a good third place. 

I believe that direct observation and seeing things happen in person will be more valuable for my work rather than hypothesizing and keeping myself in a bubble of what I assume is happening or will occur. I can live in theory land forever but good research, results, and ideas come from seeing and experiencing what is happening out in the real world. 

Design Concepts: 

Experiment with small changes in the grad studio. Put tea bags and coffee to see if people come to the studio more often and then use the equipment that is there more. Will people converse over the random appearance of usable goods? Put a random pinboard with a silly question or survey thing and see if people interact with it and socialize over the presence of the board. See if small design changes are viable to implement third place values or can be used to revive a third place.

Sit in and partake in a well-functioning third place and see why and how it works. Experience a third place for what it is and what the difference is between a regular cafe such as Tatte versus Knight’s Move 

Next Steps

Start doing the little experiments in the Ryder Studio since it’s right there and accessible 

Take a trip and bring tea bags/coffee for people to use and see if it brings more people in to use them and sit/converse with others

Create some form of programming to see if the room is still used as a place to conduct socialization

Tour some of the referenced third places and check for:

Access through public transit

If they have seating for people to sit and if it’s unlimited time or a certain amount

Go find an empty building in downtown to use as a case study 

Bring a camera with me so I can take some pictures of the site 

Revisit the definition of third places by Oldenburg and see how it applies to current context and times

IKRRRR

And OBV she's a pakka wala ace (like she said it's not physical XD) but maybe sometimes she wants to go on cute bookcafe/reading dates yk? (I'm losing my mind-)

But bro I need to know who th is this Haces dude and why were Hades' children my little pony characters-

It's official: Athena is gae

Now let me explain. So you already know about my crazy ahh greek mythology dreams right? Well I didn't have any for MONTHS until last night in which I was supposedly in a haunted mansion outside my Uni with my friends where we proceed to go down in the basement. Now suddenly we are in this weird limbo-like world where time is suspended and everything is like greyish-white (and there seems no end to the room). There is one TV in that place (which is also suspended mid-air) and me and my friends are watching it.

Basically what the TV was showing was the Greek deities and their powers (kinda like how before choosing a character in a game you get all their info) and then suddenly a woman with long wavy black hair, tanned skin, grey eyes, and adorned in a surprisingly vibrantly-coloured chiton (started off as white but then at the bottom it was multicoloured like it had all the colours of the rainbow) appeared before me. She chuckled when she looked at the TV (it displayed a female deity at that time) and was like: "Oh you guys are looking at my gf"

And I was like: 👁👄👁☠️

And my friends were like: 👁👄👁🙏😭✝️ (coz they were like who th is she)

And then I immediately asked her name because I thought she was Hera (judging her by her clothes) but she said she was Athena and I freaked out even more since she's supposed to be a Maiden goddess to which she's like: "It's not physical chillllll" and fist bumped me.

There's a lot more to the dream (like Hades' teen rip-off called Haces which I'll get into only if you ask me to ;) and demonic ponies) but THE MAIN GIST IS THAT ATHENA IS A CONFIRMED LESBIAN LESSGOOOOO

(Also Happy Diwali twiddy🪔-)

HELLO??? 😭😭😭😭

GURRRLLLL SEE IF ATHENA WASNT GAY SHE WOULDN'T HAVE MADE U HAVE THAT DREAM SO IT'S CONFIRMED (Blind leading the blind)

My hc for her is demiromantic ace but lesbianism also suits her XD

AND HAPPY BELATED DIWALIIII (sorry I took so long i have a fuckton of asks already hsjsksjsjs forgive me bestieee)
