Towards an In-Between Practice to Study Energy Shift at Work

To address the challenges raised by the design of practices for a more sustainable future, we propose to explore a design method based on design fiction. We coupled this approach with interaction-level design methods through task analysis and modelling activities. While design fiction opens up design spaces, we propose to design an in-between practice feasible with the support of a system that can be implemented in current context of use. We illustrate this method by designing an in-between energy practice at work that enables energy shifting in a current workplace supported by an eco-forecast interface.
