During her visits, she was struck by the use of humour – much of it crude or sexist. To address the topic, and perhaps change behaviour, she developed a quartet card game that makes players reflect on these types of jokes.

We are producing, consuming and distributing energy more locally. This offers opportunities to solve challenges like energy poverty. “But if we want to create just, fair, and successful energy hubs, we must make them understandable and relevant for everyone," says researcher Abhigyan Singh. 21 October 2024 Unburdening the power grid with energy hubs: here’s how it works Technically, it can be done, but in practice, it rarely succeeds: better matching the supply and demand of energy users to generate and use more power with the same grid. For her graduation project, TU Delft Odile Niers designed four interventions that succeed in initiating energy hubs in business parks. "We need to focus a lot more on social relationships," she says. 02 October 2024 AI voice assistant helps the visually impaired learn digital skills We are glued to our screens. Televisions, computers, tablets, smartphones. They offer a world of possibilities and are – for the most part - easy to use. But what about people who are visually impaired or blind? Are their needs considered when designing these devices? No, says IDE alumnus Konrad Krawczyk. That’s why he created an AI-based voice assistant to help people with visual impairment learn digital skills. 01 October 2024 Interview with Jan-Carel Diehl: “TU Delft is one big research playground” Professor of Design for Inclusive Sustainable Healthcare Jan-Carel Diehl combines healthcare solutions with care for our planet. His many projects make an impact from Rotterdam to Sub-Saharan Africa. Where does he want to make a difference? What is he most proud of? And where lies the added value of a designer in the healthcare sector? Find out in this interview. Prof Diehl gives his inaugural lecture at TU Delft's Aula on Friday 11 October. 24 August 2024 Sustainability scores could boost green travel How do we gently push travellers to explore more sustainable travel methods, such as trains? IDE alumnus Jenske Gosens dedicated her graduation project to figuring this out. Her recommendation? A neutral booking platform that assigns sustainability scores to different travel methods. “This platform both motivates and facilitates different kinds of travellers.” 30 July 2024 Interview with Elvin Karana: “Technology can be a valuable tool to rebuild our bond with nature” Elvin Karana is a Professor of Materials Innovation and Design at the TU Delft, Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering and a global frontrunner in the field of biodesign research. In this interview, we explore what inspires her to study at the intersection of biology and design. What the not-so-distant future holds for biodesign research. And what makes her research group so unique. 30 July 2024 How to embed citizens’ values in smart traffic systems The ‘Code the Streets’ system is being developed to allow for road space to be used for different activities throughout the day. But how do we choose, in a fair way, what our roads will be used for? IDE alumni Fabian Geiser designed a system map that helps to embed stakeholder values like safety and inclusivity into navigation systems. 03 July 2024 10 principles to forge resilient designers Designers go out into the world to solve big picture problems. Issues related to sustainability, health or the energy transition for example. As a consequence, they encounter resistance to change. How do we prepare designers to be strong and capable? Discover research by Rebecca Price and Mieke van der Bijl-Brouwer, and their 10 principles to guide designers in their own practice of building resilience.
