About:
Food choices greatly affect our daily lives, influencing our energy throughout the day and regulating our overall health. Efforts to change our eating behaviour sometimes focus on the negative elements of such activity, like restrictions and measuring calories. This project takes a different approach to the influence on such behaviour, focusing on positive and joyful aspects of healthy eating, and rewarding those who chose this type of food. We showed a physical model with a sensory map to show our concept.
