The impact of Corona has dramatically changed the way we live everyday and people are suffering from sedentary behaviour, i.e. reduction of physical activity and increased screen time. This project seeks a design solution to increase the physical activity and encourage responsible screen-watching behaviour for youth, especially in the domestic environment. 

코로나 이후 우리의 일상생활이 극적으로 변화되었다, 늘어나 디지털 기기와 이를 사용하는 시간은 신체 활동 감소와 화면 시청 시간 증가로 인해 좌식 행동(sedentary behaviour)을 증가 시키고 있습니다. 본 프로젝트는 가정 환경에서 특히 청소년들의 신체 활동을 증가시키고, 올바른 화면 시청 습관을 유도할 수 있는 디자인 해결책을 모색하는 것을 목표로 합니다. 

Energy consumption is invisible. Our life style heavily depends on the use of electricity and its consumptions are increasing every year. The price of electricity can be perceived as affordable or cheap; however, we must consider all the carbon emissions and environmental impacts of supplying electricity to households. The project seeks to design a most efficient energy monitor device for citizens to practice a sustainable energy consuming behaviour. 

The food supply, which is crucial to human life, can be severely disrupted by catastrophic global warming and climate change. This project aims to design a hydroponic system that is entirely self-powered, suitable for both household and commercial use. The project's name, Osiris, refers to the ancient Egyptian god of abundance, agriculture, life, and vegetation. Its ultimate goals include realising sustainable energy use and creating a hydrophonic device for a reliable food supply for people.

Do citizens comply with sirens and warning light used by emergency vehicles? How can we increase its effectiveness? 

The project seeks to evaluate the understanding of public perception against the use of siren and warning lights for emergency vehicles. How their use feedback to public? 

Many cities are encouraging citizens to commute using bicycle but available routes are not as safe and healthy as we imagine. This project investigates to collect data around bicycle commuters to design a solution that provide safer and healthier bicycle routes.

When purchasing upcycled products, consumers often struggle to understand their true environmental impact. As a result, this value is not always reflected in their purchasing decisions. This project aims to incorporate environmental information into price tags, analyze its effects on consumer behavior, and explore effective strategies for presenting this information. Ultimately, our goal is to promote a sustainable consumer culture. 

업사이클링 제품 구매 시, 소비자들은 환경적 영향을 쉽게 파악하기 어려워 그 가치가 구매 결정에 제대로 반영되지 않는 경우가 많습니다. 이 프로젝트는 가격표에 환경 정보를 포함하는 방식을 통해 소비자 행동에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 효과적인 정보 제공 전략을 탐색하여 지속 가능한 소비문화를 확산시키는 것을 목표로 합니다.
