Communicating Design

This line of research focuses on making the creative process transparent and explicit. Firstly, the aim of this research is to obtain transparency in the uncertain process of cognitive actions and strategies that a designer/maker goes through while thinking and acting in order to arrive at original and unique artefacts. Secondly, the research also aims to gain knowledge of possible strategies to make one's own design process comprehensible (for one's own use or aimed at others). This approach is based on the assumption that the process itself and its explication are inextricably bound.
