Original Source Material Student Version
Pei is popularly known for the controversy surrounding his Grand Louvre Pyramid (1988), constructed in the courtyard of the Louvre (fig. 25.21). The Pyramid deliberately turns the tradition and concept of pyramid inside out. A pyramid is supposed to be solid, dark, and solitary--a mesmerizing symbol of the exotic world beyond the streets and cultures of Europe.

One of the great wonders of the world are the pyramids of Egypt. These pyramids have become a mesmerizing symbol of the exotic world beyond the strects and cultures of Europe and the embodiment of associations with the pyramid shape which is supposed to be 'solid, dark, and solitary" (Amason, 2003, p. 667)

It is not expected that the aspects of a design case which excite the authors are precisely what reviewers sce as the case's true points of merit. I was excited to Write my design case because 1 felt it was novel, but novelty is not necessarily an asset to a design case. A design that is unusual or new forces the author to explain its complexity with more precision.

The newness of a design can pose challenges. Precisely explaining the complexity of a design becomes almost a requirement for the author when the design is unusual or innovative. For example, Howard (2011, p. 44) says "I was excited to write my design case because I felt it was novel, but novelty is not necessarily an asset to a design case*.

Even though the first digital prototype was not fully functional, designers were able to emulate playing the game by selecting diffusion activities and staff members. Through this interaction, designers noticed that players would need to move the mouse from one side of the monitor to the other for every single turn in the game. Designers also realized that the natural order of the "Activity" and "Staff members" sections were inverted because players need to first select an Information or Diffusion Activity and then select up to five staff members.

The fact that players first had to select an activity and then select who to involve in the activity meant that the order of two sections ("Activity" and "Staff member") were mixed up. This issue was observed through the use of an emulated version of the game since the initial digital prototype lacked some functionality,
