Designing seems to be moving into a new era, the disciplines that have framed our work are reshaping themselves, new kinds of designing are emerging and we are not yet able to define these new and hybrid professions, some created by people not previously thought of as designers. Contributors were asked to reflect on how their research might add to our understanding of this situation.

Proposals for the conferences were invited in the form of an extended written abstract. Abstracts were independently blind reviewed. Successful authors were invited to submit a full paper (max 5000 words) and each full paper was doubleblind reviewed by at least two appropriate reviewers. Significant differences of opinion were dealt with by obtaining a third review.
