"This book focuses on ""massive codesign"": the idea that multiple and/or numerous participants having different voices collaborate in a design process broken down into different steps and formats and resulting in a relevant and diversified amount of data. Services, strategies and scenarios are presented as the main field of application: these are complex items that demand complex processes be tackled, processes in which it is necessary to involve a variety of players who are largely interdependent and therefore who must collaborate in order to achieve any goal.The book essentially makes two main contributions: a ""Collaborative Design Framework"" to identify and structure codesign activities, methods and tools within massive creative processes; a ""set of quick lessons learnt"" to provide guidance to the conception and organisation of other massive creative processes.The whole book is oriented at practice: it discusses codesign activities from the designer's point of view, detailing issues such as process from beginning to end, activity flow, manipulability of tools, roles and rules for participants and many others. It is intended as a support for designers dealing in massive codesign processes and aims towards improved results."

Theories normally seek to explain something.'118 Theories of Design[ing]'asks us to question those explanations. By focusing on a broad range of somewhat overlooked and undervalued essays, papers, book articles, words, terms, authors and phenomena that swirl around design[ing], the reader is encouraged to read, reflect and question everything. This original book will appeal to a global market of university faculty heads and deans, museum directors, design educators, design researchers, key design practitioners, publishers, members of the design media, and undergraduate, postgraduate and post-doctoral students of design.

Este compendio de exposiciones muestra de la mano de profesorado investigador en Diseño, de modo didáctico y sugestivo, las múltiples facetas y áreas de esta actividad. El mundo del diseño se presenta a partir de la comunicación gráfica de las exposiciones y una selección de proyectos y piezas que formaron parte de las distintas muestras realizadas en la Sala Hall de la ETSID de la Universitat Politècnica de València. Proyectos de diseño para el uso público, el ocio, la comunicación gráfica, el diseño para el hábitat, aproximaciones al propio proceso metodológico como el diseño sistémico, los modelos y prototipos y el enfoque del diseño social y la cooperación al desarrollo.

The concepts and applications of ergonomics are constantly discussed in the academic field, featuring a corpus of knowledge of great expressiveness for ergonomic science itself and other related technological areas, namely: engineering, design, architecture, and others. Among the demands to expand the analysis around this discipline is its historical evolution, which is full of controversies and discussions. In fact, there is still a great difficulty in reporting its historical stages within the geographical scope and the participation of its precursors in these phases. Thus, the purpose of this collection was to bring together the studies carried out by students in the ergonomics research line, associated with the Laboratory of Ergonomics and Interfaces - LEI, in the Postgraduate Program in Design - PPGDesign, of the Faculty of Architecture, Arts and Communication from Universidade Estadual Paulista, and present subsidies to expand the discussion and evolutionary reflection of ergonomics. The first chapters describe the precursors of ergonomics, with emphasis on Leonardo da Vinci and his studies in the field of anatomy; Bélidor, Patissier and their contributions to the organization of work; Taylorism and aspects of the scientific organization of work, as well as Jules Amar's contribution in this context. The remaining chapters address the origin and evolution of ergonomics in Europe, Russia (formerly the USSR), the United States of America, Latin America and Brazil, with an emphasis on the creation of laboratories and non-governmental associations. In general, the studies presented here fill gaps that still exist within ergonomics and seek to establish a link for the future continuity of research in the area.
