A new perspective on design thinking and design practice: beyond
products and projects, toward participatory design things. Design
Things offers an innovative view of design thinking and design
practice, envisioning ways to combine creative design with a
participatory approach encompassing aesthetic and democratic
practices and values. The authors of Design Things look at design
practice as a mode of inquiry that involves people, space,
artifacts, materials, and aesthetic experience, following the
process of transformation from a design concept to a thing. Design
Things, which grew out of the Atelier (Architecture and Technology
for Inspirational Living) research project, goes beyond the making
of a single object to view design projects as sociomaterial
assemblies of humans and artifacts-"design things." The book offers
both theoretical and practical perspectives, providing empirical
support for the authors' conceptual framework with field projects,
case studies, and examples from professional practice. The authors
examine the dynamics of the design process; the multiple
transformations of the object of design; metamorphing, performing,
and taking place as design strategies; the concept of the design
space as "emerging landscapes"; the relation between design and
use; and the design of controversial things.
