OUTLINE

nume is a nutrition tool-kit to improve people's nutrition intake loop.

It is the result of a 12-week long project at Umeå Institute of Design in 2016. in collaboration with Microsoft. Created together with André, Joanna, and Lene.

My contribution was to find design opportunities from field research, formulate ideas into the whole concept, and define systematic design language.

OPPORTUNITY

We all know that we are what we eat. But the meaning of those nutrition facts on the food package is often confusing, also, getting feedback from the food we eat is always delayed. How could people know if they eat rightly?

We found that people are more likely to make decisions if they get instant feedback or suggestions. And a personalized suggestion that fits their preferences and needs could make it easier to take action. Which we saw as an opportunity for design.

OUTCOME

nume creates an actionable plan for user to comprehensively improve their nutrition intake loop, through the instant feedback from the food we eat, diet suggestions based on personal preferences, and printed supplementary nutrition pills. She promotes the perception of nutrition intake and encourages people to eat healthier.
