Book synopsis

Design is a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary§activity; it requires rigour, but also collaboration.§Design teams have conversations during the design§process. They use dialogue as a tool to allow ideas§exchange, to find connections, meaning, and interests§in a true collaborative environment. The dialogue§that occurs is the same as that which occurs in§normal negotiation in other practices of design. This§book offers a new characterization of the design§process with clear implications for design practice.§It presents a detailed theoretical analysis of§authors definitions of design and stages of the§design process, and an analysis and review of data§gathered from 5 case studies observed within two§networks: the Leonardo-network and the White Rose§Network, following Grounded Theory methodology. The§model proposed, based on dialogue, is a set of good§practices with a common language, which facilitates§the multidisciplinary design of artefact and provides§indications that can be applied to facilitate§effective design collaborations and to enhance design§quality. This book, aimed at design students,§researchers in design and designers in general.
