About Projects
Skansen, a Swedish museum dedicated to showcasing cultural heritage, is launching a “Food & Future” installation to raise awareness about the environmental impact of our food system. This interactive touch table experience, designed for visitors aged 11 and above, aims to educate the public through an engaging story. Developed in collaboration with Skansen educators, the touch table will present key food-related concepts in a way that is both informative and accessible, sparking conversation and reflection on how our food choices shape the future of our planet.

Design Approach
Start Screen:
- Display the installation’s key message: Food System & Environment
- Offer multiple ways to explore: tapping circles (details), auto-play (narrated tour), idle loop (content highlights).
Food System & Climate Impact:
- Image 1: Overall food system picture highlighting 6 climate impact dimensions.
- Image 2: User taps each dimension (e.g., Greenhouse Gas) for details (text, explanations).
Interactive Scatter Plot:
- Image 3: Users explore food impact based on their interests.
- Users can: filter by category, change chart dimensions, compare foods, read explanations, access pre-made stories.
Food Waste Exploration:
- Image 4: Starts with a relatable animation about food waste.
- Users can then access key data and connect waste to climate impact (future development).
Food & Health:
- Image 5: Links data and stories to personal health .
Food & Future:
- Image 6: Provides an engaging summary through a WWF video and an easy quiz.
