Representation of the contextual framework of a design research

Authors

Abstract

In design research, it is usual to show doubts “creative chaos” before what to observe? And how to start the scan? To provide solutions to this problem, here we provide a descriptive method of qualitative profile to design the research activity. The representation of the contextual framework of research in design, poses to the student the objectives of: exploring the information from a macro approach; define a study area; define a micro perspective of observation; describe the interaction of the study subjects; and propose a possible work structure to develop the research.

Keywords

design, contextual framework, higher education, analysis area, qualitative profile
