Eating and our relationship with food has always fascinated me - I have long since realized that it has nothing to do with hunger or basic needs. As with many others, I had questions about what I eat and when, and what drives my eating habits.
I wanted  to explore this entangled physiological and psychological process that almost always involves feelings of guilt and failure. Investigating the subject through design processes posed a difficult challenge, and I thus used a technique called speculative design or critical design that offers an alternative to how things are in the present, and operates within the gap between familiar reality and vision.
In addition, I used a concept called co-design, which involves active participation of the participants, and during which both parents and children revealed  their specific eating habits. This allowed me to characterize specific undesirable habits and to develop tools whose function is to consciously disrupt these habits, giving parents the ability to exaime more consciously.
