Abstract
Welcome to Nordes 2013 the 5th biannual Nordes conference; welcome to Malmö and Copenhagen! Since its establishment in 2005, the Nordic design research conference, Nordes, has established itself as perhaps the most impor- tant scholarly event in the field in the Nordic countries, and over the years, Nordes has attracted still more participants from the rest of the world. The ambition of the Nordes design research conference is to develop into an inter- national conference of the highest academic standards with close reference to design practice as well as to the more traditional research approaches to design; a conference which gathers scholars from the so-called artistic institutions as well as from the universities, the business schools, and the polytechnical univer- sities, including also independent scholars and still other environments. Nor- des wishes to be a vital, inspirational forum in a still emergent field of design research, where the first generation of pioneers is still active, where promising research talents try out new paths, and where you constantly see newcomers settle with their strange seeds and wonderful new kinds of crops.

Introducing Nordes 2013
Welcome to Nordes 2013 the 5th biannual Nordes conference; welcome to Malmö and Copenhagen! Since its establishment in 2005, the Nordic design research conference, Nordes, has established itself as perhaps the most impor- tant scholarly event in the field in the Nordic countries, and over the years, Nordes has attracted still more participants from the rest of the world. The ambition of the Nordes design research conference is to develop into an inter- national conference of the highest academic standards with close reference to design practice as well as to the more traditional research approaches to design; a conference which gathers scholars from the so-called artistic institutions as well as from the universities, the business schools, and the polytechnical univer- sities, including also independent scholars and still other environments. Nor- des wishes to be a vital, inspirational forum in a still emergent field of design research, where the first generation of pioneers is still active, where promising research talents try out new paths, and where you constantly see newcomers settle with their strange seeds and wonderful new kinds of crops.
