“…Furthermore, the concept for this design process has been developed by bringing together theoretical research results, methodological considerations, and practical experience from the following fields: (a) Interdisciplinary research in the above mentioned areas and dimensions of an Enabling Space (e.g., the relationship between space and cognitive, social, and emotional processes (Fayard, Weeks, 2007;Harvey, 2010), the relationship between space and creative processes (Kristensen, 2004;Moultrie et al, 2007;Lewis, Moultrie, 2005), space syntax (Sailer, 2011;Sailer, et al, 2010), etc. ); (b) Design patterns for innovation-and knowledge processes (e.g., Scharmer, 2007;Verganti, 2006;Kelley, 2004;Brown, 2009); (c) the action research or action science approach has been applied as a main tool for developing and doing research on this design process (compare Argyris et al, 1985;Ballantine, 2004;Senge, Scharmer, 2001;Scharmer, 2007); (d) Finally, experience from a large number of applied projects helped to shape and adjust the details of this design process.…”
