Ethics And Social Responsibility: Integration Within Industrial Design Education In Oceania, Mariano Ramirez
Ethics And Social Responsibility: Integration Within Industrial Design Education In Oceania, Mariano Ramirez
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Industrial design schools have typically functioned as training grounds in which future designers are skilled into becoming proficient creators of more ‘stuff’, many of which prove to be unnecessary and unsustainable. Several research publications examine the integration of sustainability in industrial design education, but most of these focus on ecological aspects, especially because environmental improvement has been the focus of government policymaking and product innovation in the last two decades or so. The social pillar of sustainability has received less attention; in fact there is no accepted definition in the design industry about what constitutes this area. This research investigates …
A Comparison Of Diary Method Variations For Enlightening Form Generation In The Design Process, Maral Babapour, Björn Rehammar, Ulrike Rahe
A Comparison Of Diary Method Variations For Enlightening Form Generation In The Design Process, Maral Babapour, Björn Rehammar, Ulrike Rahe
DRS Biennial Conference Series
This paper presents two studies in which an empirical approach was taken to understand and explain form generation and decisions taken in the design process. In particular, the activities addressing aesthetic aspects when exteriorizing form ideas in the design process have been the focus of the present study. Diary methods were the starting point of this research for investigating the form generation process through collecting self-reflective comments from the participants. The main focus of this paper is to address potentials and limitations of the three variants of diary method used for data collection, namely, unstructured diaries, structured diaries and visual …

Transitions Heuristics In The Pursuit Of Well-Being: Situating Interactive Products And Services In Transitions, Fatih Kursat Ozenc
DRS Biennial Conference Series
Transitions in people’s lives take shape in the roles they enact, and the environments they inhabit. In these transitions, people encounter the paradox of changing and unchanging happenings, occurring simultaneously at multiple channels with differing magnitudes, and through immediate and long-term interactions. In this multiplicity of dimensions, transitions bring complexity while they emerge, throughout their occurrence, and while they resolve. Dealing with this complexity oftentimes results in stress, decline in emotional and social qualities of experiences. Interactive products and service systems play an important role in transitional experiences, by providing support for people to hold on to during the transitions. …
Design For Social And Environmental Enterprise, Clare Brass, Flora Bowden
Design For Social And Environmental Enterprise, Clare Brass, Flora Bowden
DRS Biennial Conference Series
SEED Foundation undertakes action research to develop new, innovative ways for design to most effectively contribute towards sustainable development. The research that follows is not the result of academic investigations but rather, a culmination of 20 years direct professional involvement in the sector. By aligning current political goals with cutting edge design thinking and good business sense, this paper presents our ideas on how more designers can profitably solve social and environmental problems through their work. It specifically investigates how the still emerging discipline of service design, in dealing more with relationships and experiences than material objects, offers inherent social …
Design And Sustainable Development: What Is The Contribution That Design Can Make? A Case Study Of The Welsh Woollen Industry, Angharad Thomas
Design And Sustainable Development: What Is The Contribution That Design Can Make? A Case Study Of The Welsh Woollen Industry, Angharad Thomas
DRS Biennial Conference Series
This paper reports on ongoing research examining the contribution that design can make to sustainable development, that is:
'… development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs' (WCED, 1987, p. 43) It outlines the need for global sustainable development and its adoption into global and governmental policies. Both of the key concepts of design and sustainable development are discussed, as is the relationship between them (Spangenberg 2001, Walker 2006). The contradictions between design as a stimulator of consumption and its potential contribution to sustainable development are examined. The …

Creative Resource 2003-2006., Jakki Dehn
DRS Biennial Conference Series
This paper will describe the work of the practice based initiative entitled ‘Creative Resource’ and examine the relationship of this work to the design industry and design education. ‘Creative Resource’ is an ongoing three-year programme of research focussing on the sustainable development of materials and the design process. It is investigating from a design perspective the aesthetic, economic and manufacturing potential of materials made from waste and, working with government organisations at a local and country wide level, exploring the network of partnerships between the business community, regional government and the waste management industry.
