Design Learning for Tomorrow

Abstract

Design. She leads the graphic design programme and focuses on design thinking, research, theory, and design for well-being. In Advancing Design Thinking Towards a Better Understanding of Self and Others, she addresses two key themes: 1) the movement away from materialism occurring in the field of design, and 2) improving problem-solving skills through self-awareness. The first theme anchors design in a process rather than a product, something that is native to the concept of design thinking, while the second anchors the designer in ethics.
