Welcome to the website of the Fourth International Conference on Design Principles and Practices. In 2010, the Design Conference will be held in University of Illinois, Chicago, USA from 13 to 15 February.
This Conference will address a range of critically important themes relating the design today. It is a place to explore the meaning and purpose of ‘design’, as well as speaking in grounded ways about the task of design and the use of designed artifacts and processes. The Conference is a cross-disciplinary forum which brings together researchers, teachers and practitioners to discuss the nature and future of design. The resulting conversations weave between the theoretical and the empirical, research and application, market pragmatics and social idealism.
