The concept gathers the digital pro-active opportunities in healthcare and social welfare offered by the state to enable individual and inclusive support for the families in the event of stillbirth, bringing together state systems, non-profit organisations, the community, and small acts of kindness offered by volunteers and companies alike. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c7d24834785d3d5f27ed29f/1551705226550/Helen+Selirand+signature+backgroundless+white.png Home https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c861e4ef9619a8b163419e0/1596654337149/iPad+CIRCA+DIA.jpg Home - Humane schedule management for reducing human error in long-term space missions Living for up to a year on the Moon without seeing the outside world or your loved ones, constantly surrounded by colleagues who are also the only people in the radius of 400 000km, is truly daunting. Circa Dia is a schedule management system meant for use on a lunar base that takes into account individual circadian rhythm, enhancing the performance of the astronauts and lowering risk of human error while raising the autonomy of the astronauts on their long-duration missions. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8e7173c8302569d10f925e/1596654433449/main.png Home - Taking the successful offline customer experience online In 4ROOM physical stores, the sales representatives approach each client individually and guide them in navigating the various options of the product portfolio. Through a few inquiries about the space, the sales staff gets an adequate understanding of the client’s needs and is then able to assist in finding the best fitting luminaire fitting the requirements of the client.

According to the Interjöör 2018 statistics, 18 700 people visited the fair in three days. 4ROOM Interior required a booth design. The process begun with reviewing the previous year’s experience and gaining understanding of the expectations of both — the exhibiting brands and the visitors. The completed design captured the audience’s attention and the booth received the aspired high levels of active engagement. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5f2c51dbffc9f41be88f98d9/1596740068323/perh.png Home - Putting the patient in focus at PERH Day Surgery Centre PERH (The North Estonia Medical Centre) is one of the top healthcare providers in Estonia.

The setup was fresh, showing new colour and furniture trends of the industry and received noticeable attention. Although the exhibit sparked the interest of the visitors when analysing the results, it became clear the booth did not communicate well to the visitors – it lacked clear collective identity – visitors were not sure what the booth offered. The layout unintentionally urged the visitors to view the booth from afar, rendering them inaccessible for interacting with the sales staff. In this layout, there was room for only a few furniture products before space felt crowded. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c854b7c1905f45b20f24d02/1552239496984/4ROOM+interior+fair+booth+setup+colour.jpg 4ROOM at Interior 2018 - Findings directing the planning Understanding the expectations of the exhibiting companies and of the visitors of the interior fair while taking into account the analysis of the previous year’s experience, created strong guidelines for the design of the booth of 2018. Sketching the floor plan and considering different placements of the wall panels, the foundation presented itself clearly. Not only did it encourage visitors to interact with the booth area, creating active areas of interaction, but it also allowed for a lot more products to be presented without the booth feeling cluttered. For active sales, five members of the sales staff were available at all times, yet the layout didn’t make them obvious to the visitor and the booth didn’t ever feel overcrowded. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c854291eb393173c6e52cfc/1552239956638/31052164_2300518959961891_7867983295718359040_o.jpg 4ROOM at Interior 2018 - Encouraging interactions Knowing what the visitors of the Interior fair come looking for in this event, the booth design aimed to reflect this. Colour scheme of the booth was intentionally more bold than the visitors dare to use themselves. The booth also held a small exhibition of a young Estonian illustrator Eili Lepik and on each day of the fair, there was an hour of meet-and-greet session with local furniture designers. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c842b86971a187cd99b0a77/1552165771747/31189941_2300519049961882_7023602681058951168_o.jpg 4ROOM at Interior 2018 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c842be99140b78afbd657bb/1552165877953/ 4ROOM at Interior 2018 https://www.helenselirand.com/trend-forecasting daily 0.75 2020-08-21 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8a23aef9619aa91f39718d/1552803136975/spread_2.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8958299b747a021ed71033/1552803136957/IMG_5662.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8956d371c10b51e2425d47/1552803136966/Colourflow%2Bflowerpetals+copy.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8a23be4785d313e7defb51/1552803136978/Colourflow+pink+material.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8a23c79140b7d7eeadd1ee/1552803136981/spread_4.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c86bc1d15fcc089b53b24a4/1552803136954/Vision-2019-spreads.jpg Trend Forecasting - Bringing the trends to life The topics grow into trends that, in the trend book, open the themes and characteristics in different aspects. These are always accompanied with explanations and commentary, inspiring visuals, colour cards, and material swatches. Research into long term global developments (5-10 years) is the foundation of the Vision book. What is currently happening in the world affects people’s thoughts and values and therefore what kind of products will be needed in the future. Colour Flow shows how to translate these directions into new colours and materials. These are not limited by season or fashion but attempt to analyse colours and materials for a wider and longer term perspective. Trends with a long term influence that could feature for five years or more. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c86aff21905f40348c36a71/1552803136951/Oltmans+van+Niekerk+WIP.jpg Trend Forecasting - Filtering out the important Once it’s time to sum up the research, all the bits and pieces are gathered and discussed. Topics grow and form from the comparisons and discussions. Through several filtering rounds the most important stories and trends form that end up in the trend books. It is important to look into the future and see how the topics would develop further — how people react and how things will impact their lives in the long run. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8956dd7817f7a7e29efe93/1552803136969/Colourflow+golden+leaves.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c89548fe5e5f0b64bd1530a/1552803136963/Colourflow%2Bwhite%2Bveggies+copy.jpg Trend Forecasting https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8907eceef1a11162915b08/1552803136961/IMG_5660.jpg Trend Forecasting - Creating inspiring visuals Translating the trends into visual imagery to inspire the users of the trend books, requires a thorough understanding of the trend and what it stood for, but also an immense amount of creativity. How to form the research into something that visually communicates the trends and inspires designers in their own creation. Creating of the visuals is where the imagination was really set free. Cutting up vegetables to set these in composition only to spray-paint it white or heading to the nearby park to collect leaves, branches, and flowers to cover these in gold leaf was not only fun, I feel in this process I became more resourceful seeing opportunities where I previously hadn’t noticed them. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8a23a59140b7d7eeadd0e0/1552803136972/spread_1.jpg Trend Forecasting https://www.helenselirand.com/circa-dia daily 0.75 2020-08-21 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8d636bf4e1fca543604667/1552769984285/DSC01830.JPG Circa Dia https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8d6642c8302569d108413b/1552770632780/hiseas-nasapic_0+%281%29.jpg Circa Dia https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c894c26e79c704994af2306/1552502144810/marekmetslaid__MMP3776-Pano.jpg Circa Dia https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8d5f5ee4966b4eaedb5b11/1552768870284/jordan-steranka-616004-unsplash%2Bcopy.jpg Circa Dia - CIRCA DIA Humane schedule management for reducing human error in long-term space missions https://www.helenselirand.com/4room-web daily 0.75 2020-08-23 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8f4704652dea660dd8c1d2/1552893742340/old_web.jpg 4ROOM Web - Current process on the web is overwhelming The filters of the old website don’t take into consideration the preferred process of the customers for choosing luminaires. The amount of options in the filters is overwhelming and difficult to understand (for example in choosing the diameter, customers are left guessing the meaning of ≈600 vs 600).

This is not a big leap at all from what they are already managing today. Having a friendly voice and face supporting the patients during their journey adds trust for the patients. Amicus allows patients to be under the care of a dedicated nurse during their treatment journey who would also be the one to call the patient to inform them about their surgery time, welcome them on the day of the surgery and make a call appointment a day or two after the surgery to check on the patient and answer any remaining questions. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4ae4937708a0000132836f/1581866602369/human+contact.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d496a607fda4c00018d3c2d/1581866602365/IMG_20190424_105444.jpg PERH Service design - An intense week of co-design In the ideation phase we worked closely together with experts from various related fields.

Within that week we developed our main concept idea and got direct feedback to it from the hospital actors and experts in order to take the next steps to develop the idea further and finalise our design concept. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4aec4ddb5638000112be5a/1581866602378/personell.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4ae1ae5540370001a81e02/1581866602356/responsibility.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5c8e13420d9297ab470e27d6/1581866602349/pa%CC%88evakirurgia+visiit1.jpg PERH Service design - Finding the focus During the initial information gathering we were introduced to PERH and given a tour of the clinics. In our team of three students, we decided to focus on the day surgery clinic. PERH Day surgery clinic is fascinating as it operates differently from other clinics of the same hospital. In a way it can be viewed as a facility for surgeries — patients come in for surgical procedures that are performed by corresponding surgeons of the hospitals. The main requirement for surgery to be eligible for the clinic is that the patient can leave the hospital on the evening of the surgery. After a thorough tour of the clinic, we had a good overview to form our general understanding of the clinic and make first assessments on what to focus on in the interview process. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5cab6f49fa0d60608b7b026b/1581866602362/ PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4ae6e586b3170001c19667/1581866602384/ PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4c0b2be12bc10001e3c11b/1581866602344/header.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4add87c0e7720001ac0948/1581866602381/Amicus+explanation+portrait.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4bdfdc782d4800011f0922/1581866602389/Markko+ja+Kai+copy.jpg PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4aeecdc7b7a20001cc7bdf/1581866602387/ PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4adf4e2deace00012471ed/1581866602352/deep+music+dude.png PERH Service design https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5d4ae2e75540370001a83448/1581866602359/Passive.png PERH Service design https://www.helenselirand.com/taltech-university-library-strategy daily 0.75 2020-08-23 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e517b1e643db018c86e0596/1582398248600/ TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e50f6b2643db018c85ff995/1582364343495/Asset+9%403x.png TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e49a29004e5d06f3452ee13/1582462052269/STEM+report+groupwork+space+on+mockup.png TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e50f8cadbfcb2688ef9c99f/1582364879548/Asset+13%403x.png TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e5194a7292ccf78e8270b44/1582404787277/skills_1.png TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5e50f8dc643db018c8601858/1582364896587/Asset+14%403x.png TalTech University Library strategy https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c61d5b5b7c92c3d2e09bbcc/t/5f3d4d065ea009584627aa3f/1597852943890/skills_1.png TalTech University Library strategy - Peer-to-peer learning STEM facilitates peer-to-peer learning through its fifth floor STEM Skills area.
