New report: Service design for pro-environmental behaviour and resource efficiency at KTH Live-In La
A recently published report discusses service design for pro-environmental behaviour and resource efficiency in smart homes. The report is based on a study where one of KTH Live-In Lab’s testbeds was used to test different service concepts.
The study is focused on how services in smart homes can be designed to encourage pro-environmental behaviour and resource efficiency. Several service concepts were designed together with KTH Live-In Lab based on the behaviour and experiences of the users. The service concepts were then tested in the KTH Live-In Lab testbed.
The report presents a systematic approach to the service design process that combines a user-centered and a data-driven approach. The study combines quantitative data from, for instance, sensors in the KTH Live-In Lab testbed with qualitative data such as feedback from the residents in the testbed.
The report is written by Elena Malakhatka, doctoral student at KTH. The project was carried out in collaboration with Electrolux, Schneider Electric, Vattenfall, Oura ring and Akademiska hus.
