“…The majority of experiments refer to conceptual work, but only 3 studies include the prototyping phase. However, it was found by Haines-Gadd et al (2015) that prototyping is instrumental in the design process by decreasing mistakes and improving the design. Moreover, they suggest further that prototyping can be utilised as tools for communication and integration between the participants.…”

“…A further approach on a leadership role is presented by Kleinsmann and Valkenburg (2008), in another experiment, where they find that the team, who shared leadership roles, resulted in the best design outcome. Another study of Haines-Gadd et al (2015) presents the idea of the leadership role rotation, that becomes an enabler for new collaboration energies to take place at various project stages. Feast (2012) suggests, that team size will also affect the collaborative level of the group.…”

“…However, in the study of Kokotovich and Dorst (2016), the novice team did not use any methodologies or tools, and thus did no enrich the solutions space. Lower experience level, in the research of Haines-Gadd et al (2015), led to inefficient use of time and resources. In the majority of studies, teams are being formed in a laboratory experimental way with students from the same academic year.…”

In this paper, we review empirical studies of multidisciplinary collaboration in design and innovation activities. From 200 papers, we selected 17 for a meta-synthesis review. When revisited and compared, they present common themes and dichotomy in findings. This literature review discusses such diversity, offering a methodological critique of unclear areas. Four emerged themes were identified: (1) Knowledge diversity, (2) Trust, (3) Barrier and (4) Jargon and communication, providing perspectives for further research on how online collaboration will influence multidisciplinary team processes.

“…This may look different for every user and is highly dependent on the context, culture, and situation for each individual. Few designers have explicitly considered the dignity of the user while going through the design process (Haines-Gadd et al 2015). The Jaipur Foot team described their respect for the human dignity of their end users as central to their approach, knowing that it was not the most prudent from a purely profit-making perspective.…”

Compassionate design: considerations that impact the users’ dignity, empowerment and sense of security

et al. 2019

Human-centered design provides a means to help designers create products or systems with ‘people’ as the focus. Compassionate Design (CD), introduced in this paper, is an approach that addresses niche sensitive needs and involves a way of thinking where designers pay special attention to the users’ sense of dignity, empowerment, and security. These niche needs surfaced as a result of analyses of 12 cases situated in sensitive contexts where the users felt vulnerable, had a high level of emotional engagement and were negatively affected by the situation. The designers described their deep concern for the users in various talks and interviews. This paper explains the conception of CD and its development that resulted from iteratively and qualitatively analyzing these cases in which designers were intuitively focusing on niche user needs. Dignity, empowerment and security form the basis of CD and have been contextualized in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs after they emerged as a result of the analysis of data. This research sets the platform for a design approach that can help designers to consider the often unarticulated user needs of dignity, empowerment and security, in a more intentional manner and not be left to chance.
