In interpreting their own work designers are able to make unexpected discoveries and explore the implicit knowledge held within their expectations of the world.

Abstract:
This licentiate thesis presents and discusses experimental explorations in search for new methods of form-thinking within the knitwear design process. The position of textile knitting techniques is somewhat ambiguous. This is because they are not only concerned with creating the textile material, but also with the form of the garment as these two are created in the same process. Consequently, the common perception of form and material as two separate design parameters can be questioned when it comes to knitting. Instead, we may view it as a design process that has a single design parameter; a

Design thinking has attracted a significant amount of interest and attention from the non-design sector in areas such as finance, government services and transport. This has resulted in new definitions that appear to describe design thinking as the mythical process that generates innovation and as a result, creating confusion and causing some to question its meaning. Research was undertaken to explore the possible knowledge gap that exists between academic and practitioner understanding of design thinking and its practical application. The relationship between the two has been articulated and

Abstract:
<p> This study empirically explores operational practices and archetypes of design thinking in various organizational constructs. The emphasis is on examining the common operational practices applied in design thinking initiatives, to determine whether there are variations in the patterns of applications of these operational practices across different design thinking initiatives, and to identify what may explain such variations if they indeed do exist. The extant literature on design thinking distributed across many disciplines was assessed to determine the common operational practices underly

Abstract:
Waste management has been considered as a significant challenge for sustainable development. From EPA report, furniture is the number one least-recycled item in a household. In current markets, much of furniture is made of composite material, which isn’t feasible to separate. This design project is based on the trend of sustainable furniture as well as the rapid expansion of recycling culture. It contains both tangible furniture design and intangible metadesign thinking. Here it comes with thesis statement: In order to raise public awareness of sustainability, how to design a furniture product

Il seguente lavoro di tesi cercherà di indagare i temi dell’innovazione, al fine di mostrarne l’applicazione pratica in un caso studio. Si partirà dal concetto di innovazione, se ne analizzeranno i principi chiave, con una particolare attenzione alle fonti dell’innovazione e ai network collaborativi. Un’attenzione particolare verrà data inoltre ai programmi di finanziamento della Comunità Europea, non solo perché sono programmi che promuovono la collaborazione, l’innovazione e indagano sulle problematiche più significative dell’innovazione, ma anche perchè il case study oggetto di analisi è
