ABOUT

Peer-to-Peer Tool Sharing

This project addresses an aspect of a sharing economy that encourages Kirseberg, a local neighborhood in Malmö, to have a positive impact on their personal finances and environment through the act of sharing with their community. This is by sharing with neighbors what one already has at your home, strengthening the community spirit, and minimizing consumption of goods.

I looked into existing “sharing” initiatives both in Kirseberg, Malmö, and also drew inspiration from communities around the world to create a service that meets community needs and invites innovative practices.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Problem Statement

How might we utilize and broaden the notion of the library being an existing facility for sharing to meet additional needs?

SOLUTION

Tools

Tools and similar equipment are seldomly used items that are found in most households. Because of their longstanding quality, tools are generally pricey items to purchase for infrequent use which can result in being underutilized and items that occupy a lot of space.

Peer-to-Peer Sharing

If a single item owned by one person can be shared by a large number of people, the impacts on consumption of resources can be profound, and in this manner, the notion switches from merely storing/ selling an item to offering a service in the community

Challenges & Solutions

What I Learned…

  • During this project, I learned how to empathize with a user group (students and staff) in a limited time frame. Collaboration, time management, and communication were all important factors to generate the best results and make sure everyone was on the same page and had their ideas heard.

  • The result was a platform that connects new students with experienced students and encourages the community to contribute and learn from each other to work on something they love and gain experience while doing it.
