#19 - Dan Hyde: Impact of User Experience in the Built Environment, Ventilation and Air Quality

04/15/24 • 113 min

Dan Hyde
Dan is a UX strategist, researcher, co-host of the Zero Ambitions Podcast (a podcast about sustainability and the built environment), and co-founder of the magazine that ultimately evolved into Passive House Plus.

At Everything is User Experience, Dan and Alex his co-founder develop the strategy that underpins everything from apps and websites, to bid writing, service design, and corporate sustainability communications.

Working in the built environment, finance, and healthcare sectors, they carry out practical research that can be turned into simple, strategic packages that enable their clients to create experiences that work for all users.

In a full circle, Dan is a partner in a spin-off of the Zero Ambitions podcast, the Zero Ambitions Partnership offering much of the same strategy advice around UX, but focused specifically on the built environment, with Alex and Jeff Colley, the editor and owner of Passive House Plus and co-host of the podcast of the same name.

I wanted Dan on because he is just a great value to talk to anyway. One of his many skills.

However, beyond the performance gap in IAQ and ventilation in general, we have a significant communications gap, both with users of spaces and the stakeholders who deliver and manage them.

Good UX and design in how we structure strategy, communicate it, and provide ongoing support are everything. This chat scratches at some of these ideas.

#18 - Simon Jones: If not you, then who?

Send us a text

This week I ask the question.
If not you then who?
Who is going to measure ventilation in the context of retrofit assessment and other housing scenarios, beyond competent ventilation installers and assessors, and how might that look?
It was a question I raised in response to the publication of the RICS Residential Retrofit Standard.
Have a listen and let me know what you think

An article recently published in Science, advocating for air quality standards in public buildings, is a fantastic position from many leading voices in the scientific air quality community.
I spent a little bit of time this week talking about it and some of the issues and challenges with the proposition.
