Decluttering / Tidying up with Marie Kondo: Design for Joy

Marie Kondo is the host of the popular Netflix show ‘Tidying up with Marie Kondo’. Kondo’s method of organising is known as the KonMari method and consists of gathering together all the ones belonging one category at a time, and then keeping only those things that “spark joy” (tokimeku the word in japanese means “flutter throb”, palpitate and choosing a place for everything from then on)  and discard items that no longer spark joy , therefore unveiling physical and emotional transformations through simple act of tidying.

Design an experience that allows users to declutter their personal space (Home, garden,refrigerator or office desk etc.) by following the konmari method. The experience should also help users to deal with the emotional barriers preventing them from decluttering and transform the relationship they have with physical possessions and make intentional decisions.
