Designerly Ways of Knowing: Design Discipline versus Design Science

摘要

I would like to begin this paper with a brief review of some of the historical concerns that have emerged with respect to the relation- ship between design and science. These concerns emerged strongly at two important periods in the modern history of design: in the 1920s, with a search for scientific design products, and in the 1960s, with a concern for scientific design process. The 40-year cycle in these concerns appears to be coming around again, and we might expect to see the reemergence of design-science concerns in the 2000s.
