This contribution summarizes the co-design and user requirements engineering work carried out in the framework of the Pharaon Large Scale Pilot project, in Pilot to be deployed in the Region of Murcia (Spain). During the co-design phase, authors defined the methodology for the co-design and representation of user requirements as goal models, use case scenarios, and user stories. The methodology entailed several up-to-date co-design methods for user requirements’ elicitation. ISO 9241-210 standards were followed. The original plan for eliciting and representing user requirements was modified due to the Covid-19 outbreak. The methodology designed and used is explained to serve as inspiration for similar approaches for smart healthcare, Ambient Assisted Living, or smart environments.
