Analyzing User Experience With A Smart Product-Service System: Children-Owned Wearables, Isil Oygur Ilhan, Yunan Chen, Daniel A. Epstein
Analyzing User Experience With A Smart Product-Service System: Children-Owned Wearables, Isil Oygur Ilhan, Yunan Chen, Daniel A. Epstein
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Contemporary smart product-service systems increasingly enable multiple users to interact with multiple touchpoints of the same system simultaneously. We looked deeper into the use practice of one such smart product-service system, children-owned wearables. Our data comes from a short-term auto-ethnography and a user review analysis of 9 children-owned wearables. Experiences designed for children assume they have limited agency, leading parents to switch roles between being the end and mediating users. As mediating users, parents become service providers for their children. These user dynamics can hinder children’s experience with wearables and their interaction with other wearable users. Our findings extend the …
Rendering Soil Care Across Hotel, Retailer, And Farm With A Mutuality Service Blueprint, Markus Wernli, Kam Fai Chan
Rendering Soil Care Across Hotel, Retailer, And Farm With A Mutuality Service Blueprint, Markus Wernli, Kam Fai Chan
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Food retailers and hoteliers aiming at eco-social transitions struggle to show tangible impact on the ground. Since sustainable food systems necessitate internal reconfigurations of service structure, exploring value creation concerning the local environment and community is essential. Design management tools are challenged to deliver mutualist conditions that respond to the needs of soils and humans. We explore what an eco-social Mutuality Service Blueprint entails based on an empirical pilot case. Here, 13 hoteliers and 17 retail customers in Hong Kong became soil care service providers over 43 weeks by diverting 4800 liters of food waste for composting and growing 1500 …
Designing With More-Than-Human Temporalities, Riel Bessai, Roy Bendor, Ruud Balkenende
Designing With More-Than-Human Temporalities, Riel Bessai, Roy Bendor, Ruud Balkenende
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Time is a crucial element in design, and even more so when it comes to designing for sustainability. Many designers approach sustainability from a problem-solving perspective, according to which time is linear (and therefore quantifiable) and the future is predictable (and therefore designable). Designerly time appears quintessentially modern and human. A welcome antidote can be found in more-than-human design perspectives, where a multitude of actants and agencies and their appropriate temporalities are given consideration and space. In this paper we add to such approaches by suggesting two ways to engage with more-than-human temporalities: noticing and care. We illustrate how these …

Design For Longevity (D4l): Project Your Future Self Through Service And Technology, Sheng-Hung Lee, Joseph F. Coughlin, Sofie Hodara, Anna Meroni, Carla Sedini
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Amid the advancement of technologies, robust socioeconomic systems, transformational healthcare systems, and sustainable wealth management, people not only live longer but want to live better: with purpose, delight, and respect (Coughlin, 2017). As lifespans extend, the traditional stages of life – learning, earning, and retiring – have transformed into multi-generational stages (Golden, 2022). The demographic shift and social-economical context have inspired and generated the concept of Design for Longevity (D4L), which emphasizes a sustainable life-long cycle (Lee et al., 2023; Ulrich et al., 2020; Sedini et al., 2020; Justice, 2019). One key factor to maintaining a better quality of life …

Designing A Recovery Playbook For Muslim Americans Experiencing Substance Use Disorders, Firaz Peer, Shamin Shoomali
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Substance use disorders (SUDs) within the Muslim American community presents unique challenges influenced by cultural, religious, and social factors. Research indicates that SUDs are often hidden within Muslim communities due to the stigma surrounding them. Addressing SUDs requires culturally sensitive prevention and treatment programs that consider the diverse backgrounds and specific needs of Muslim Americans. The goal with this Lab was to create a recovery playbook that can guide Muslim communities in their journey through recovery. This playbook was based on the feedback we received from two online workshops with seven participants from across the US. Doing a thematic analysis …
‘We’Re All In This Together’: A Mixed Methods Randomised Controlled Trial Exploring Cross-Pollinative Team Learning Studio Pedagogy’S Effects On Academic Resilience And Performance, Zhengping Liow
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Design education's pedagogy of ambiguities and the One-on-One Master-Apprentice's Hidden Curriculum purportedly led to psychological distress and poor academic performance for beginning design students. Despite favourable social conditions, few studies have examined Social Support as positive adaptations towards students' academic resilience in design studios. This mixed methods randomised controlled trial compared One-on-One and Cross-pollinative Team Learning (CTL) students. Inferential statistics revealed that One-on-One students were more resilient (p = .065 & p = .126), but CTL students have academically outperformed significantly (p = .0003 & p = .017). Thematic Analysis of CTL students’ focus group interview as they transitioned to …
Envisioning Transformation Structures To Support Ethical Mediation Practices, Shruthi Sai Chivukula, Colin M. Gray
Envisioning Transformation Structures To Support Ethical Mediation Practices, Shruthi Sai Chivukula, Colin M. Gray
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Ethics is complex and situated, involving many stakeholders that impact the design of technology systems. Numerous methods and tools have been proposed to enable practitioners to address ethical issues in the workplace. However, little work has described how designers themselves understand and seek to respond to that ethical complexity. In this short paper, we present five transformation structures that visually and relationally depict how ethics might be addressed in a workplace setting. We base these structures on analysis of plans that 39 practitioners and students created in a co-design workshop to address an ethical concern in their job role. We …
Measuring Mental Wellbeing – Can We Measure It, And If So, What Should We Measure, And How? A Qualitative Provotyping Study, Sander Hermsen, Lieke Pijnenborg
Measuring Mental Wellbeing – Can We Measure It, And If So, What Should We Measure, And How? A Qualitative Provotyping Study, Sander Hermsen, Lieke Pijnenborg
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Mental wellbeing is a growing concern for many young adults today. The design of digital products and services that could support young adults is hampered by a lack of knowledge about what constitutes mental wellbeing, and what design requirements exist for interventions. This study applied a provotyping method to add to this knowledge. Results show that mental wellbeing is broader than hedonic and eudaimonic aspects, encompassing also social, psychosocial, health- and activity-related and relaxation-related aspects. Design requirements for interventions that automatically register and provide feedback on mental wellbeing include tailoring of defining aspects to personal situations, algorithms that learn from …

The Uses Of Enchantment: Playful Design Tools That Evoke ‘The Unsayable’ For Teenagers With Lived Experience Of Loneliness., Eloise Belladonna Day
DRS Biennial Conference Series
This project introduces tools that involve teenagers, with relevant lived experiences, in co-creating a social-purpose advertising campaign as a way of meaningfully engaging young audiences. Many co-creation methods rely on direct, text-based, or individual spoken contribution methods. These disregard young people’s unconscious knowledges and collective ways of knowing. The research was conducted through ethnographic methods alongside semi-structured interviews with the participants of a co-created campaign workshop. The result is a suite of novel playful tools which generate collective insight and creative ideas by engaging teenagers’ collective, embodied and imaginative ways of knowing. The key concept of ‘enchantment’ is used to …

Born Alone, But Not Lonely: Rethinking Public Space Design For Chinese One-Child Generation’S Affinity For Solitude, Xia Bi, Caterina Villani, Kin Wai Michael Siu
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Understanding the psychological needs of users is crucial for public space designers and healthy city planners. However, there is currently less atten-tion paid to the need for solitude in public spaces, despite psychological re-search demonstrating the positive impact of public space use on physical and mental health. With the only-child generation becoming the main pro-ductive generation in Chinese society, it is important to determine their psychological needs regarding public space use. This study aimed to address this issue by using questionnaire studies. Participants (n=521) aged between 10 and 25 completed an online questionnaire survey. The results indicated that the young …

This article develops a synanthropic design approach. The Port of Rotterdam currently houses one of Europe’s largest colonies of the synanthropic species of Lesser Black-backed Gulls. The thriving of this particular colony is entangled with human interventions and economic activities in the larger Dutch Delta. We map the managerial, legal, political, and economic interrelations and dependencies that animate the human and more-than-human contact zone. By including a gull's perspective on the Dutch delta environment, this study aims to support the facilitated coexistence of humans and Lesser Black-backed Gulls in the Port of Rotterdam – now and in the future. The …

Governance In Silico: Experimental Sandbox For Policymaking Over Ai Agents, Denisa Reshef Kera, Eilat Navon, Galit Wellner, Frantisek Kalvas
DRS Biennial Conference Series
The concept of 'governance in silico' summarizes and questions the design and policy experiments with synthetic data and content in public policy, such as synthetic data simulations, AI agents, and digital twins. While it acknowledges the risks of hallucinations, errors, and biases, often reflected in the parameters and weights of the ML models, it focuses on the prompts. Prompts enable stakeholder negotiation and representation of diverse agendas and perspectives that support experimental and inclusive policymaking. To explore the prompts' engagement qualities, we conducted a pilot study on co-designing AI agents for negotiating contested aspects of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act …
