Bon Voyage

About the project

Bon Voyage is a research artefact that uses indoor climate data for ludic exploration of air quality. The sensor boxes send real-time air-quality data to the printer like temperature, humidity and particle density. The printer converts it into ludic output output. This research project resulted in a pictorial. There we share a data-enabled design process in which we designed to support ludic engagements enabled by indoor climate data.

We took inspiration from ludic design as it considers more playful and open-ended forms of interaction made possible by interactive products. We learned that stimulating curiosity and uncertainty can promote exploration and help create new connections. We propose handles to pick-up where our pictorial left when designing for ludic engagement through data-enabled design.
