Many lovers separated by distance worry about their relationships, despite the fact that the use of various means of communication such as mobile phones and e-mail is now widespread. We interviewed some such couples, who expressed the desire to feel a sense of connection and synchronization with their partners. They also expressed the desire to have devices that provide awareness about their partners. For this purpose, we propose "SyncDecor" devices, which are pairs of remotely installed appliances that synchronize each other.
