Personas
Food Desert Shoppers
The personas of Food Desert Shoppers were sketched out in the development of UrbanBARN, a design solution to address food deserts. The UrbanBARN team conducted field research in the Bay View Hunter's Point neighborhood of San Francisco, the sixth largest food desert in the country. Personas were composited from shop-alongs and intercept surveys in corner stores, fast food restaurants, food banks, and supermarkets with 25 participants.
