Initial Research

The brainstorming process began with thinking about social, economic, environmental, technological, and political (STEEP) issues that might impact users of the future. We made a card describing each issue, then sorted out the ones most applicable to the bathroom.

The STEEP card process began with a classwide brainstorming session. It was interesting to see what students from other perspectives, especially from other countries, speculated would be pressing in the future.
