Just recently we reached the point when more devices were linked up to the internet than people. In the near future our role as product designers is going to switch. Not only will we design home appliances but also their digital life and relationship to other objects.

Objects will be ‘talking’ and ‘learning’.

For my project I want to make future-objects ‘talk’ on a level that enables an innovative user experience in a connected home environment.

I believe that digital identities of objects are going to make more information and experiences accessible for the user.

The prototypes show future applications of ‘talking’ objects and give an idea of how our interaction with appliances may change in the near future.
