Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, Living Labs (LLs), which design services through long-term co-creation with users, have been attracting much attention. However, the knowledge required to effectively promote LL (i.e., practical knowledge) has yet to be organized. LL practitioners often design and manage LL projects on an ad hoc basis, without any knowledge or methods a foundation of practice. The purpose of this study was to develop a method for designing LL projects by utilizing practical knowledge. In the first year, we collected LL practical knowledge and constructed a knowledge architecture for LL practice. In the second year, we developed specific support tools based on the knowledge architecture. We developed the Participation Blueprint, a tool for planning and designing the participation process of users in LL. We applied the toolto analyze and plan the user participation process in an actual LL project and verified its usefulness.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
LLは、社会とより密接した形での技術開発やサービス創出を積極的に展開していくためにも、今後の社会で非常に重要になるデザインアプローチである。しかしながら、LLを効果的に実践するための知識や支援ツールは、これまでに殆ど整理されていなかった。これに対して、LLに関する過去の文献を網羅的に調査した上で、LL実践のための知識アーキテクチャや支援ツールを明らかにした本研究は、様々な現場で活用できる成果であり、学術界だけでなく、産業界への貢献も大きい。
