This paper presents observations of an experimental research project were three design students reflected on the relationship between design and gender through practice. By relating to the emerging theory of design-driven innovation of meaning the study highlights a number of aspects which has so far been little explored empirically. A notion that such design processes are inherently interpretative will be supported. Further, the public reception and interpretation of the artifacts, when shown in an exhibition, will reveal problematic dynamics that is increasingly pronounced the more meaning challenge deeply held socio-cultural norms and values.
