Research project
As a part of my research, I prefer to work in practice-based co-design teams, in which I can explore engaging (co-)designerly ways of working in such teams. So far I have been doing this for example in various European IT research projects and in a User-driven innovation project exploring design-anthropological ways of working for example within the area of trash-handling. As a part of my Ph.d. project ”Material Matters in Co-design” I for example explore roles and meanings of (engaging) tangible things in specific co-design situations for example during workshops.
