Summary:This paper describes the process that led to the design of the Specch.io framework. Specch.io is a platform for seamless data collection, mash-up, visualization and exploration of personal data. The project is part of an internal research track focused on the usage of technology to promote and foster individual well-being from a biopsychosocial (BPS) perspective. The objective of Specch.io, is to reveal and raise awareness on individual life patterns, generating integration and meaning about aspects of the “self” that can hardly be captured from a subjective point of view.
