Overview

Explores hybrid speculative design methods using reflective prototyping to engage with future scenarios, suggesting new roles for designers.

Key Points

  • This research investigates how reflective prototyping can facilitate critical exploration of speculative industrial design.
  • Utilized a hybrid methodological approach combining Research through Design and Heuristic Inquiry.
  • Applied techniques in a solo research context focusing on iterative prototyping.
  • Followed phases including heuristic engagement, immersion, incubation, illumination, and reflection.
  • Generated artifacts that served as both design outcomes and cognitive instruments.
  • Enabled the exploration of socio-technical implications and speculative narratives.
  • Expanded the designer's role from problem-solver to critical provocateur.
