Content Introduction

In just a few years, Nest has grown from a single thermostat company to a leading smart home brand. That brand, simple, human, and delightful, is at the core of all of Nest design. In these workshops, we’ll show how sound design, voice, and writing come together to create products that you want to live with. From simple greetings to helpful, easily understood messaging, we will talk about the process and details of designing text and speech interactions for the home. Participants will design their own prototypes for connected home devices that speak.

In this workshop, we will discuss how sound design and writing are combined to design user experiences for thoughtful, home devices that speak. The presenters will discuss various design challenges we faced when writing and designing voice interactions for Nest’s products. Participants will then practice writing for mobile apps and products that speak, and review them together.
