An investigation of the influence co-creation holds
for brand experience
Based within the kitchen environment using kitchen-
ware design

Co-creation:
DART Building blocks – Dialogue, Access, Risk
Assessment, Transparency
(Prahalad and Ramaswamy, 2004)
Collaboration not Customisation
Users are Active contributors not Passive
Recipients (Fuad-Luke, 2009)
A process of dialogues and interaction between
customer and supplier during a product’s
lifecycle (Payne et al, 2009)
Brand Experience:
A Sensory experience: a strong brand

6. Co-creation and Brand Experience:
How does co-
A brand becomes the experience within a co-
creation environment, and this relationship
should be explored (Payne et al, 2009)
creation impact
Active Participation where customers play roles
on brand
in creating a performance or event that results
in a personal experience
(Pine and Gilmore, 1998)
experience?
Customers, brand communities and
stakeholders are resources which produce an
effect on the brand
(Merz and Vargo, 2009)
7. Literature Review: Co-creation theory
Access is that to desirable experiences, no
Dialogue is interactive, encouraging deep

sharing and new levels of understanding
the product) rather the exposure to new
between consumer and company, which is
opportunities through multiple points of
empathetic and injects value into the
interaction, that broaden business
creation process
opportunities.
Prahalad and
Ramaswamy’s (2004)
DART Building Blocks
Transparency – provides a balance of
Risk assessment – is a trade off between information between customer and
risk and benefits, the definition of clear company, an openness provided by online
responsibilities
access to a product, technology and systems
in a collaborative dialogue.
9. Literature Review: How can we define consumer-
value within a kitchen environment?"
New trends within
consumer-value systems:
symbolic content in the
shopping experience,
products become artefacts
(Hulten et al, 2009)

10. Literature Review: How can we define consumer-
value within a kitchen environment?"
Consumer-values are found within
community-based activities – in an
‘experience environment’ (Prahalad and
Ramaswamy, 2004)
Brand Communities: shared goals,
engaged in actions, with like-minded Photo: Doshi Levien (2008)
consumers (Schmitt, 2012)
A consumption experience: with Brand
stimuli Colour, Shape,Typefaces,
Background Design (Brakus et al, 2009)
