Banco Chroma: A Transparent Shade Bench for Social and Recreational Purpose for CIE and CAFA Students, aims to have a more notable positive impact on the campus's student population's mood. In an effort to fill in the design gaps left by the former shed that Banco Chroma has subsequently replaced on the grounds of Technological University of the Philippines. In the courtyard between the CIE and CAFA buildings, the proponents of the thesis chose to conduct a survey with 80 respondents split between two clusters of students and professionals who were selected based on their closeness and connection to the study will then proceed to evaluate the paper. The proponents of the research utilized a qualitative-quantitative technique to examine whether the prototype's intended purpose is successfully accomplished in order to gauge the project's acceptance. Following a thorough planning, designing, and production process, the prototype was then brought to its current site. The project's validity was determined to be highly satisfactory, and it centered on six distinct factors: use (functionality) with a mean of 4.62, attractiveness (aesthetic) with a mean of 4.59, affordability (economy) of 4.42, safety with 4.40, comfortability of a 4.54, and strength and durability with a mean of 4.52. Total to an overall average mean of 4.52. All these findings demonstrate that Banco Chroma, a transparent shade bench for social and recreational purposes for CIE and CAFA students, can provide students with effective protection if they choose to use it as a study space and has shown to improve social interactions and the atmosphere within its area, evoking feelings of comfort and positivity all around.
