Digital Energy Futures wins Gold Good Design Award 2024
On Friday, the Digital Energy Futures team won a Gold Good Design Award for their "Foresights for Future Living" project.
We know little about future everyday life. The purpose of ”Foresights for future living” was to innovate a new design ethnographic futures workshop approach, and create new visions of possible future everyday life in 2030 and 2050. It was designed for academic researchers and energy and other sector stakeholders.
