NEXUS
Home power consumption visualization
Nexus is a blend of physical and digital design, aiming to help users visualize their own power consumption. By doing this the user will understand their environmental impact, learn more about peak times, and be informed how to minimize their footprint. The Nexus system fits into the users home as a functional piece of decor that promotes conservation education. The hub and point visualize different rooms, and the smart breaker system allows for smart home monitoring. User interviews were conducted, and a digital design element was made in a collaborative effort with UX design students.
