Design for a Better Living
summary
Walmart buys Jet for $3 billion, pilots free fast shipping and a local pickup incentive for items stocked within about 50 miles of stores, and sees doubled engagement; twelve household reorder buttons prompt a family hack to reroute orders to Walmart. Design shifts to co-creation workshops with 20–30 families quarterly, using play‑doh prototyping to surface latent needs and launch a styled home‑decor shopping experience last week. A roadshow with a hardware development van (4,000 ft velcro, 14,000 miles) yields working prototypes — a glove translating ASL to text and helmet/diagnostic concepts — several ideas prove viable.
