Wonder House
a canteen service tries to solve different kinds of eating problems on campus
Terrible meal experience.
Students in China always face a problem that the school canteen is not only lack of tasty but also extremely crowded because of the commercial service system and the huge population. Students are often forced to wait in a crowded canteen, eat with strangers and “enjoy” food that is not local enough.
Canteen Situation
-
step1: finish class
-
step2: arrive canteen
-
step3: find no seats
-
step4: use bags to take seats
-
step5: wait in line
-
step6: get food
-
step7: deal with food debris
Students agree.
According to the student’s evaluation of the current canteen, the food is too unlocal and they have to spend a lot of time for lunch or dinner since there is a rush hour after class. The price is also unwonted with cheap high-quantity food or expensive small-quantity food. The environment is not so good.
Students' Evaluation on School Canteen
Let us make an APP.
It efficiently reduces the time that people use to wait in line and find a seat in the canteen. What’s more, a group of students do not have to worry about failing to find a suitable seat.
I wanna enjoy the meal.

The blue green squares are four movable table on pathways, each blue green square can be transformed into a quadrant in order to make people, especially couples, relatively face-to-face.
Wow, transformer!
The picture on the left shows a possible layout of Wonder House:
· There are four sets of tables, providing different tables for all kinds of the group under eight people.
· By using computer calculation, students are arranged randomly, according to the customer number recorded from the app.
· Space is always ready for serving.
Commercial storefronts always are not able to provide students with truly local food. It will be good if we pay students from different regions as the internship to offer local food.
It tastes good!
I need fast food.
For those students who stay in the teaching building or in the dorm, they are not so willing to go to the canteen, so if they need, we could provide the food which can be available immediately. However, they can not decide what they eat, which they usually do not care about, consider it a surprise.
