As a college student, I have fallen victim to the vicious cycle of unhealthy eating habits. Late night studying, a limited budget, and lack of information is surely a recipe for lack of keeping a diet that helps me feel good throughout the day.
Through this project, my goal was to create a solution to help college students, like myself, to cook and consume higher-quality meals. This went beyond just improving the college experience, but to equip students with the necessary tools for post-grad life.
The final design featured an array of touch points which created an ecosystem of tools to support college students in a healthier eating lifestyle.
1. Vending Machine
Combatting erratic eating schedules by offering convenience, speed, and accessibility.
2. Social Media
Connection, community, and recipe inspiration
3. Cooking Classes
Removing barrier of common fears/unknowns about cooking
4. Rent-a-Kitchen
Offers space for college students that do not have access to a kitchen due to dormitory constraints
