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:
Personalisation in design is desired to address the uniqueness of people, and the design for one process is suitable to achieve this. However, more research is needed on people’s experience with such a process to learn from it and improve it. We describe and examine the design for one processes of three different design cases, where young design researchers co-design with older adults to create personal designs. We found that the process is beneficial to interpret results better. However, the workload needs to be considered, and we can potentially extend further in personalizing the process by defining the users’ creative strengths beforehand. Furthermore, we discuss applying this design for one process with other target groups and discuss the value of the unique findings of each particular case. Hereby, we contribute to how to execute and evaluate the design for one process and further enhance it for application in sensitive settings.
