  Proceedings of DRS2020 International Conference, Vol. 1: Synergy, Situations

  Stella Boess, Ming Cheung, and Rebecca Cain

  The overall theme for DRS2020 is Synergy – the coming together of people and disciplines in design research to create a positive impact. On the one hand, design research champions the uniqueness of disciplinary knowledge and creativity, yet on the other hand, the complex world we now live in demands a more synergistic approach to creativity and problem- solving whereby different mindsets, backgrounds and perspectives come together to realise transformative visions of the future. DRS2020 celebrates these emerging synergistic approaches to design research and seeks to explore their exciting possibilities for addressing multi-faceted problems, supporting participation, and transforming problematic situations into desirable ones.

  Proceedings of DRS2018 International Conference, Vol. 1: Design as a catalyst for change

  Cristiano Storni, Keelin Leahy, Muireann McMahon, Peter Lloyd, and Erik Bohemia

  A catalyst is something that precipitates events; it is the coming together of different entities to generate something new; it is the spark for wider change. Framed by the Catalyst theme, these proceedings explore existing and emergent areas at the intersections of design research, practice, education and policy.

  Proceedings of DRS2016 International Conference, Vol. 10: Future–Focused Thinking

  Peter Lloyd and Erik Bohemia

  The underlying premise was that 50 years of design research has provided us with a sound understanding of design and a solid foundation upon which to build. The interesting questions, then, appeared to us as not so much how we do more of the same – though that of course has its place – but in how we use what we now know. Hence the three broad questions that the papers in these conference proceedings respond to: How can design research help frame and address the societal problems that face us? How can design research be a creative and active force for rethinking ideas about Design? How can design research shape our lives in more responsible, meaningful, and open ways?

  Proceedings of DRS2014 International Conference: Design’s Big Debates

  Youn-kyung Lim, Kristina Niedderer, Johan Redström, Erik Stolterman, and Anna Valtonen

  The main purpose of the DRS 2014 conference is to foster and support a shared design discourse. By focusing on key big issues in design, the conference seeks to create a forum where the questions that have the potential to change the way we think and do design -its philosophy, theory, practise, methodology, education, profession and history - will be discussed and debated.

  The proceedings of the 2012 Design Research Society International Conference hosted by Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand. Submissions covered extensive themes and emerging research that is broad in scope and depth, submitted with the conference theme of Re-Search: uncertainty, contradiction and value, in mind. The initial abstract submission was high with approximately 550 initial abstracts submitted. Of the 288 full papers submitted, 183 papers were accepted and of these 154 papers were presented at the conference along with an additional 23 poster presentations.
