Description

Office well-being aims to explore and support a healthy, balanced and active work style in office
environments. Recent work on tangible user interfaces has started to explore the role of physical,
tangible interfaces as active interventions to explore how to tackle problems such as inactive work
and lifestyles, and increasingly sedentary behaviours. We identify a fragmented research landscape
on tangible Office well-being interventions, missing the relationship between interventions, data,
design strategies, and outcomes, and behaviour change techniques. Based on the analysis of 40
papers, we identify 7 classifications in tangible Office well-being interventions and analyse the
intervention based on their role and foundation in behaviour change. Based on the analysis, we
present design considerations for the development of future tangible Office well-being design
interventions and present an overview of the current field and future research into tangible
Office well-being interventions to design for a healthier and active office environment.
