The Multiple Tasks of Design Research

Resumo

Design research, a phenomenon that has emerged rather late in the history of design practice, is based on the idea of design as an independem activity with its own aims. Until now, design has remained for the most part embedded in consumer culture and still awaits a thorough excavation. Research that privileges design itself, rather incorporating it into the agendas of related practices, has grown in recent years only to the degree that designers have been able to separate their own identity from the contexts in which their work has been traditionally located.
