tree house

I'm pretty excited for this tree house project. It sounds like it will be fun...unlike wayfinding.
The tree I chose was a super curvy one with the branches curving over the top and creating a nice space in the middle. It is right next to Potter Lake with many other trees around it.
I think the personas I want to use are a group of people who might not normally be friends (the prep greek kid, the jock, the artist, the chemist, etc), but through all of them needing an escape (from homework, friends, relationships, work, etc.) like how we did when we were kids, they find out that their problems aren't so different after all. They all have stress and would like an escape place to vent about what's going on in their lives. Potter Lake is a great place for students to go and just relax, especially on such a nice day like today. So it is very likely that these people would be there to try to get away form their issues, therefore meeting each other and finding this great treehouse to spend their time, while getting to know people from other social groups.
