Unlike most technologies for increasing environmental awareness, which are utilitarian and instrumental, the Weather Stations focus is on supporting more poetic readings of the home. Our field study with dozens of the devices in South London homes suggested that devices such as these can encourage interesting, complex or simply different reflections on the relationships between home, technology, and the environment. They move us beyond simple narratives of self-sacrifice and restraint toward more nuanced and complex reflections about sustainability and the home.<br><br>Click <a
