NordDesign 2020
The NordDesign conferences serve as a Nordic complement to the larger international conferences in design and product development, but we also wish to welcome participants from all other countries.
Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
This paper considers the application field of testing a prototype in prototyped test environments versus in the actual intended environment. This is done by studying a project with the aim of developing a new low-cost concept to locate water pipe leakages. We wanted to share a snapshot of our system in a realistic development case. A focus on prototyping test environments may have been an efficient way to capture the knowledge necessary to develop a successful solution. We therefore, suggest alternating approach of testing in the intended environment and prototyped test environments.
