The 5 answer is a toxic combination of both. -
The Issues and Benefits of an Intelligent Design Observatory
INTERNATIONAL DESIGN CONFERENCE - DESIGN 2008 Dubrovnik - Croatia, May 19 - 22, 2008. THE ISSUES AND BENEFITS OF AN INTELLIGENT DESIGN OBSERVATORY B.J. Hicks, H.C. McAlpine, P. Törlind, M. Štorga, A. Dong and E. Blanco Keywords: design process, design teams, design performance, observational studies, experimental data, experimental methodology 1. Introduction Central to improving and sustaining high levels of innovative design is the fundamental requirement to maximise and effectively manage design performance. Within the context of 21st century design - where the process is largely digital, knowledge-driven and highly distributed - this involves the creation of tailored design processes, the use of best-performing tool sets, technology mixes and complementary team structures. In order to investigate these aspects, there is a need to evaluate the practices and needs of industry; advance understanding and design science; create new tools, methods and processes; and assess the state-of-the-art technology and research output. However, effective investigation of these four areas can only be achieved through a fundamental understanding of today’s complex, dynamic design environments. Such detailed understanding is presently unavailable or at least very difficult to obtain. This is largely because of a lack of capability for holistic investigation of the design process and an inability to perform controlled experiments, using reliable and meaningful metrics that generate complete high quality data. The consequences of this are that many tools, methods or technologies that could benefit industry are not adopted, some are adopted without rigorous assessment and do not perform as anticipated, and many are developed on the basis of incomplete or limited data. -
Discussion on Application for Interior Space Design and the Application of Interior Design Style
3rd International Conference on Education, Management and Computing Technology (ICEMCT 2016) Discussion on Application for Interior Space Design and the Application of Interior Design Style Xiaodong Zhang Institute of Environmental art design, Hebei Institute of Fine Art, Shijiazhuang hebei, 050700, China Keywords: interior design, psychological space, design style Abstract. Interior design is the essence of the interior space design, including physical space design and psychological space design two levels. Interior design style is an important issue for interior designers and owners. Through analysis and Research on the relationships between design and interior design style of interior space, summed up the "interior space design to create a style of interior design" and "interior design style shape the psychological space two obvious characteristics. Interior Space Design and Its Content The Meaning of Interior Space Design. Interior space design is a creative activity of human transformation of living space, through the interior space design can make human living environment become more comfortable [1]. Although the "interior space design" theory is not a long time, but has been constantly being human practice. Since ancient times, human beings have been in the pursuit of the security of living space. Full, comfortable and beautiful. People in the primitive society in the cave laying leaves, weeds and skins and in the walls of the cave with color drawing lines and patterns, and so on for living space transformation, which all belong to the indoor space design. Interior space design is not only focused on solving the relationship between people and nature, but also more and more focus on solving the problem of the relationship between people and society, so that people in the community better work and life. -

Effective New Product Ideation: IDEATRIZ Methodology
Effective New Product Ideation: IDEATRIZ Methodology Marco A. de Carvalho Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, Mechanical Engineering Department, Av. Sete de Setembro 3165, 80230-901 Curitiba PR, Brazil [email protected] Abstract. It is widely recognized that innovation is an activity of strategic im- portance. However, organizations seeking to be innovative face many dilem- mas. Perhaps the main one is that, though it is necessary to innovate, innovation is a highly risky activity. In this paper, we explore the origin of product innova- tion, which is new product ideation. We discuss new product ideation ap- proaches and their effectiveness and provide a description of an effective new product ideation methodology. Keywords: Product Development Management, New Product Ideation, TRIZ. 1 Introduction Introducing new products is one of the most important activities of companies. There is a significant correlation between innovative firms and leadership status [1]. On the other hand, evidence shows that most of the new products introduced fail [2]. There are many reasons for market failures of new products. This paper deals with one of the main potential sources for success or failure in new products: the quality of new product ideation. Ideation is at the start of product innovation, as recognized by eminent authors in the field such as Cooper [1], Otto & Wood [3], Crawford & Di Benedetto [4], and Pahl, Beitz et al. [5]. According to the 2005 Arthur D. Little innovation study [6], idea management has a strong impact on the increase in sales associated to new products. This impact is measured as an extra 7.2 percent of sales from new products and makes the case for giving more attention to new product ideation. -
Chapter 6: Design and Design Frameworks: Investing in KBC and Economic Performance
323 | DESIGN AND DESIGN FRAMEWORKS: INVESTMENT IN KBC AND ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE CHAPTER 6. DESIGN AND DESIGN FRAMEWORKS: INVESTMENT IN KBC AND ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE This chapter addresses the nature and the economic impact of design by looking at design-related intellectual property and how businesses protect their knowledge based capital. The chapter reviews the nature and various definitions of design and how design-related IP, specifically registered designs, relates to other formal IP mechanisms such as patents, trademarks, and copyright. It looks at the primary areas of design activity in a subset of OECD countries and investigates the similarities and differences of the constituent design IP regimes as well as the various treaties governing international design IP regulation. The review continues with an examination of how design-related IP functions in comparison to and in conjunction with other formal and informal IP protection mechanisms and what factors motivate firms to choose and appropriate combinations of protection mechanisms. By examining historical patterns of design registrations in a variety of ways, this chapter identifies trends, at the national level, of how firms perceive the importance of design-related IP. Analysis of national origins of registrations in both the European Community and the United States provides an indicator of the activity of those countries’ businesses relative to their proximities to the markets. It explores the existence of possible alternative indicators for design activity and of industry-specific variations across the sample set. The chapter concludes with a review of input and output measures as stated in the limited set of studies that have endeavoured to establish or quantify the value and/or benefit of design and design-related IP. -

Reverse Metadesign: Pedagogy and Learning Tools for Teaching the Fashion Collection Design Process Online
7th International Conference on Higher Education Advances (HEAd’21) Universitat Politecnica` de Valencia,` Valencia,` 2021 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/HEAd21.2021.13181 Reverse Metadesign: Pedagogy and Learning Tools for Teaching The Fashion Collection Design Process Online Daria Casciani, Chiara Colombi, Federica Vacca Design Department, Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Abstract The present article discusses the experience of redesigning the pedagogy and learning tools of a pillar course at the School of Design of Politecnico di Milano, the Metadesign studio course. Metadesign is a design methodology that leads to the concept definition of a new product or service through a research process that synthesizes design goals, technological and productive constraints, market context, and consumption trends for a consumers’ group of reference. It represents a unique methodological approach characterizing a design education as it provides a consolidated research practice able to support the design process. The course structure foresees the reconstruction in phases and the development of all the contextual elements—product, space, service, communication artifact, etc.—that come into relation with the to-be- designed object and influence its characteristics. This process enables creating the "abacus" of components to use in a design activity. Considering the ever- increasing need to reshape the whole education system because of the paradigmatic change pushed by digital transformation and the urgency for on- distance courses posed by the COVID-19 emergency, the article presents a renewed "reversed" course structure. It highlights strengths and opportunities for further improvements representing a solid base for innovating a fashion design education. Keywords: Metadesign; fashion design; learning-by-doing; reflection-in- action; deductive reflection; virtual learning environments. -

It begins with an idea and culminates in a structure that may serve its occupants for several decades, even centuries. Like the manufacturing of products, building construction requires an ordered and planned assembly of materials. It is, however, far more complicated than product manufacturing. Buildings are assembled outdoors by a large number of diverse constructors and artisans on all types of sites and are subject to all kinds of weather conditions. Additionally, even a modest-sized building must satisfy many performance criteria and legal constraints, requires an immense variety of materials, and involves a large network of design and production firms. Building construction is further complicated by the fact that no two buildings are identical; each one must be custom built to serve a unique function and respond to its specific context and the preferences of its owner, user, and occupant. -
Public Space Design for Urban Complex Public Space Design of the Metropolitan Urban Complex, Xuyong, Luzhou, China
Public Space Design for Urban Complex Public Space Design of the Metropolitan urban complex, Xuyong, Luzhou, China SHAN XIAO Professional Project Report April 9, 2014 D e p a r t m e n t of Urban and Regional Planning University of Wisconsin - M a d i s o n CCC Executive Summary I choose this project as a continuity of what I did during the internship last summer. It’s a large-scale urban design project; I cooperated with the project team to come up with an urban design sketch, I took the responsibility of the public space design of the Metropolitan urban complex. I begin this paper by asking myself as planners, as urban designers, what can we do to make the public space attractive, comfortable, and at the same time support and reflect the attributes of the urban complex? In search of the answers, I did extensive literature readings and researches to explore the fundamental principles of landscape and environmental design of urban complex. I also did plenty of case studies of excellent public space design to learn practical techniques designers employed when doing an actual project. Through studying, I concluded several principles that are particularly worth noting, such as designs should be people oriented and commerce oriented, should be integrated into larger cultural context and urban texture, and should shape a sense of place. Bases on these guidelines, I developed my public space design for the Metropolitan urban complex in Xuyong, Luzhou, China. I used Photoshop, CAD, Sketchup to come up with the final deliverables. I finished this report with acknowledgement of the significance of architectural environment, and conclusions of schemes to improve the environment during the design process. -
