Important results from the project
The Value of Wellbeing developed new frameworks and prototypes for measuring and visualising wellbeing as an innovation parameter. Through the KQI framework, Resonance Index and the speculative design prototype Wellbeing Architect, wellbeing became tangible and actionable. Collaboration between Lindholmen and TechSeed deepened, and the results are already applied in related initiatives and future projects.
Expected long term effects
In the long term, the project will enable cities and organisations to govern through human and ecological wellbeing rather than economic growth alone. It strengthens Sweden’s leadership in value-based innovation and provides a foundation for future AI-driven decision tools and wellbeing indices in urban environments.
Approach and implementation
The project was carried out in three phases: 1.Analysis of existing frameworks and future scenarios related to wellbeing, 2. A speculative design process with foresight, including prototype and concept development of visual and theoretical tools,3. Reflection and synthesis within the working group. The timeline was followed, and the collaboration between Lindholmen and TechSeed worked well.
