The Process

At The Good Home, we are dedicated to reimagining the future of home living. Our process is a journey of exploration, collaboration, and innovation, bringing together diverse perspectives and expertise to create inspiring solutions for the 21st-century home. Here’s how we do it:

Step 1: Ideation and Exploration

We begin with a deep dive into the challenges and opportunities of modern living. Through a series of public installations, we explore what life could be like for technologically-savvy households. We consider the limitations of diminishing household budgets, limited global resources, evolving concepts of privacy, the sharing economy, and global migration.

Step 2: Collaboration with Experts

Our approach is collaborative, involving a wide range of experts from various fields. We work with:

  • Architects: To design spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
  • Designers: To create innovative products and solutions.
  • Computer Scientists: To integrate cutting-edge technology into everyday living.
  • Landscape Architects: To harmonize indoor and outdoor spaces.
  • Meteorologists: To understand and incorporate climate considerations.
  • Energy Specialists: To promote sustainable and efficient energy use.
  • Sociologists: To ensure our designs meet the needs of diverse communities.
  • Builders and Artists: To bring our concepts to life.

Step 3: Concept Development

With input from our collaborators, we develop concepts that push the boundaries of traditional home design. We explore flexible living arrangements, open hardware innovation, and connected products that enhance the home environment. Our goal is to create a values-based vision that inspires new ways of defining, living, building, and interacting with our homes.

Step 4: Public Installations

We bring our concepts to life through public installations. These installations allow us to test our ideas in real-world settings and gather feedback from the public. This hands-on approach helps us refine our designs and ensures they are practical and impactful.

Step 5: Research and Documentation

Our work is grounded in thorough research. We document our findings and share our insights through various mediums, including e-books and research papers. This knowledge-sharing is essential to advancing the field of home design and inspiring others to join us in reimagining the future.

Step 6: Continuous Improvement

Innovation is an ongoing process. We continually revisit and refine our designs, incorporating new technologies and insights as they emerge. Our commitment to continuous improvement ensures that our solutions remain relevant and forward-thinking.

The Good Home is more than just a project; it’s a movement towards a better way of living. By combining the expertise of diverse professionals and the input of the public, we are creating a vision for homes that are sustainable, adaptable, and truly inspiring. Join us on this journey as we design the future of home living.
