Background
Johanne Ib has created a Food Design Lab, investigating potential future scenarios through collaborations and knowledge production based on design experiments with participants, using both participatory design and performance theory.
A recipe for eating together
WHAT?
A conversation and creation tool for meaningful food experiences.
HOW?
In a self-created laboratory for food and meal design, Johanne Ib has experimented with different groups of participants and studied what makes a food experience meaningful – and what that experience does to promote social interaction.
WHY?
Studies show that community is an essential part of Danish food culture. But this culture is under pressure; more and more people eat alone and many feel lonely when sitting at the dinner table. With the concept ‘A Recipe for Eating Together’, the designer wants to contribute to the development of the Danish food culture and the opportunities for shared food experiences.
