CONTEXT

For most people it is difficult to reduce foodwaste and that’s why I want to help here. Households are the biggest contributor to food waste. 43% of waste comes from the homes. Thats why I have decided to analyse wastage in households.

PROBLEMATIC

6.6 million tonnes of food are thrown away from households. The relevance lies in the need to reduce food waste and promote a sustainable food culture. How can we find simple solutions to minimise these sources of food waste?

RESEARCH

Students and Foodwaste

Reason for Food waste

CHOSEN STRATEGY

How can we make it as easy as possible for a student to use leftovers and create a meal plan?

CONCEPT

A helpful fridge integrated into a student’s kitchen, which helps the student create a meal plan with an efficient shopping list and view a detailed inventory.

Adding a PopUp to choose where your meal should be added

Making the font bigger

Adding the own location at the Supermarket Screen
