Calling Architects & Smart Home Innovators We’re looking for professionals to join a PhD research project focused on the intersection of smart home technology and child-friendly design. This research will explore how smart technologies are currently being integrated into homes and identify key opportunities and challenges in designing spaces that truly meet the needs of children and families. Azin Ehteshami is seeking input from architects, smart home designers, residential technology consultants, home automation specialists, and other professionals working with connected home technologies. The goal is to bridge the gap between design and tech expertise to create future design principles that prioritize children’s well-being and development. As part of this research, we’re hosting a collaborative workshop to share insights, tackle challenges, and co-develop strategies for designing smarter, more inclusive homes. If you or your colleagues are interested in participating or contributing to this important work, we’d love to hear from you. Please reach out to Azin if you're interested or have any questions. Also, if you know others in the smart home or residential tech fields who would be valuable contributors, we’d appreciate your recommendations. We look forward to collaborating with you!
