Innovation in design : strategies for designing together

• Innovation in design is becoming increasingly important as businesses see the limits of cost reduction strategies for improving productivity, profit, and growth.To create innovation in design we will show that designing in skilled practice has an inner logic: a structure that allows it to be understood as a kind of reasoning, a form of inquiry, but that also includes and depends upon the designer's appreciative judgments.Through the use of a research technique called Design Games and a real-life problem situation, participants will explore designing with a variety of tools, techniques and methods. Participants will reflect, analyze, and evaluate their work with others and by doing so will learn how their designs can become more communicative, efficient, and foster innovation through out the design process.The Space Planning and Organizational Research Group (http://destec.mit.edu/sporg/info/) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the User Centered Design Group at Danfoss have provided research and material for this tutorial.
