Facilitating Teamwork In The Design Process: Repertory Grid As An Approach To Exploratory Inquiry, Anne Louise Bang, Kirsten Nissen

Nordes Conference Series

By approaching the Repertory Grid as an exploratory design game and drawing on insight in diagrammatic reasoning we argue that this approach is useful in supporting team work in the design process. In this article we draw on two courses inviting textile design students to contribute to the development of the Repertory Grid – originated in psychology as a one-to-one interview technique – into a tool for articulation and dialogue. Especially the concept of eliciting bipolar constructs using the triadic difference – asking how two elements are alike but different from a third one – proves to support in-depth investigations, …

Forming Process : Design Through Layered Visual Systems And Multiple Collection Methods : A Thesis, Jen Magathan

Masters Theses

"Do not hide the structure, celebrate it in the form" ; "Approach design from multiple points of view."

Modes Of Participation: Co-Creative Approaches To The Design Process, Carissa Henriques

Theses and Dissertations

This project explores the notion of participation within the graphic design and problem-solving process. Through projects using generative tools and collaboration, I explore ways to instigate controlled participation from designers and non-designers. I observe and document how the methods and means of participation affect the creative process during these projects.
