  1. 1. Opening Up Design : Engaging the Layperson in the Design of Everyday Products

    Author : Guido Hermans; Erik Stolterman; Ron Wakkary; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; democratisation of design; toolkits; 3D printing; layperson participation; post-phenomenology; research through design; design; design;

    Abstract : This dissertation in industrial design focuses on the gap between the context of design and the context of use. It aims to open up design to the layperson and investigate an active role for the layperson in the design of everyday products. READ MORE

  2. 2. Design And Body : Exploring Conceptions Of The Body In Fashion Design Processes

    Author : Faseeh Saleem; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Body alternatives; alternative body expressions; fashion design processes; conceptions of the body; design thinking; artistic research; fashion design education programmes;

    Abstract : The human body has been considered to be an active element and is a common starting point of fashion design processes. However, during these processes, understanding of the body and how it is used to design is often confined by the body’s standard spatial and structural characteristics. READ MORE

  3. 3. Zero Waste Design Thinking

    Author : Holly McQuillan; Clemens Thornquist; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; zero waste design; sustainable design; circular economy; fashion design; circular design; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : The fashion system is contributing to the environmental and social crises on an ever increasing scale. The industry must transform in order to situate itself within the environmental and social limits proposed by economist Kate Raworth, and the 17 sustainable development goals set out by the United Nations.

  4. 4. Radiant Textiles : Designing electromagnetic textile systems

    Author : Erin Lewis; Tincuta Heinzel; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; smart textiles; electromagnetism; textile design; design methods; artistic research; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : To regard the electromagnetic domain of conductive textiles is to unlock a realm of expressive possibilities. The underexplored area of the electromagnetic domain in con­ductive textiles implies that numerous computational and electronic textiles created thus far possess untapped capabilities. READ MORE

  5. 5. Radiant Textiles : A framework for designing with electromagnetic phenomena

    Author : Erin Lewis; Delia Dumitrescu; Katharina Bredies; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; smart textiles; interaction design; textile interaction; textile; electronic; electromagnetism electromagnetic; design methods; artistic research; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : The design of smart, interactive, computational, and electronic textiles involves working with unknown variables that expand the tangible dimensions of textiles. Non-visual concepts such as electromagnetic fields, electrical current, computational code, and the temporal attributes of materials that exhibit dynamic qualities require that textile designers be able to perceive and manipulate domains of the textile that extend beyond its conventional forms of expression.
