2. 1. Remake: Design Foundations

   Author : Anna Lidström; Lars Hallnäs; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; waste; surplus; redesign; remake; design; method; clothing;

   Abstract : leftovers, waste, and surplus generated by increasing production and consumption of material goods. Their problem is not new, and over the last decade the search for a solution has given rise to various theories about and technologies for resource recovery and waste management. READ MORE

4. 2. Devices. On Hospitality, Hostility and Design

   Author : Martin Avila; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Device; hospitality; hostility; design; languaging; accident; ecology; symbiosis; autopoiesis; umwelt; Device;

   Abstract : This thesis studies and speculates upon the interrelations of artefacts with human and nonhuman agents. These interrelations form assemblages, some of which have emergent properties, becoming manifestations of processes that we cannot fully control or understand. READ MORE

5. 3. Structurally Informed Architectural Design

   Author : Laurens Luyten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; architect; structural engineer; architectural design; structural design; conceptual design; design collaboration;

   Abstract : Architectural form and its supporting structure are results of interdependent design processes that do not always develop in harmony: often major outlines of architectural form are decided before structural design is involved. This doctoral work investigates design collaborations between architects and structural engineers in which architecture and structure are designed in mutual agreement, and structural design is able to guide and inspire a creation of architectural form and space.

6. 4. A data-driven approach for Product-Service Systems design : Using data and simulation to understand the value of a new design concept

   Author : Syed Azad Chowdhery; Marco Bertoni; Johan Wall; Tobias Larsson; Mehdi Tarkian; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering design; data-driven design; conceptual phase; Value-Driven Design; Product-Service Systems; Ingenjörsdesign; datadriven design; konceptuell fas; värdedriven design; data mining;

   Abstract : Global challenges such as increasingly competitive markets, low-cost competition, shorter lead time demands, and high quality/value output are transforming the business model of the company to focus beyond the performance requirements. In order to meet these challenges, companies are highly concerned with the customer perceived value, which is to connect the product with the customer in a better way and become more proactive to fulfil the customer needs, via function-oriented business models and Product-Service Systems.

7. 5. Designing for Intercorporeality : An Interaction Design Approach to Technology-Supported Movement Learning

   Author : Laia Turmo Vidal; Annika Waern; Dag Svanæs; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interaction Design; Movement Learning; Movement Teaching; Biofeedback; Wearables; Constructive Design Research; Research through Design; Practice Design; Soma Design; Technology Probes; Strong Concept; Movement Aesthetics; Människa-dator interaktion; Human-Computer Interaction;

   Abstract : Technology-supported movement learning has emerged as an area with ample possibilities within Human Computer Interaction and Interaction Design, as interactive technology can help people to develop and improve sensorimotor competencies. To date, design research has largely focused on technology development and on supporting individual learning experiences. READ MORE
