Exploring Healthful Spatial Interface with Bodystorming: A Case Study from the Vertical Workspace Workshop

Published: 13 October 2023 Publication History

Abstract

The wide spread of artificial intelligence and spatial computing is driving the emerging development of healthful spatial interface (HSI), which requires new paradigms for generating relevant designs. In this paper, we present a case study on exploring tools and methods for ideating HSI concepts based on bodystorming. Specifically, we set out a workshop utilizing office vitality as the research context to investigate interactive elements in a vertical space for individual workers. We developed a real-size vertical space mockup capsuled with some tools, as well as a co-creation workflow to support bodystorming activities of this workshop. Based on a pilot study with nine participants, we obtained some qualitative data to reflect on the effectiveness of our workshop in facilitating design ideations of HSIs. Moreover, we found the proposed approach helped us quickly explore how HSIs could be designed and vertically arranged for increased office vitality. We conclude with implications and discussions for future work.
