This book seeks to establish the meaning of design research, its
role in the field, and the characteristics that differentiate
research in design from research in other fields. The author
introduces a model to explain the relationship between the
components of the ontological reality of design: the designed
object, the designer, and the user. Addressing design research
across disciplines, the author establishes a foundational
understanding of research, and research paradigms, for the design
disciplines. This will be crucial for the emerging field of design
research to find its own identity and move forward, building its
own knowledge base as it finds its positioning between science and
art. The book will be of interest to scholars working in design
history, design studies, graphic design, industrial design,
interior design, architecture, fashion design, and service design.
