AWARE

AWARE is a design oriented research project that aims to increase people's awareness of how energy is being used in everyday life, especially in our home environment. The objectives are to develop strategies and artefacts that make people attentive of their energy use, as well as offer them control and possibilities of making their energy use more efficient. 

The AWARE project took place att Interactive Institute, Energy Design during 2006-2008. The project was carried out in cooperation with Stiftelsen Svensk Industridesign (Swedish Industrial Design Foundation, SVID) and funded by Energimyndigheten (the Swedish Energy Agency, STEM).
