“…In the post-industrial society, design has found increased space as a form of economic activity and an aid to management, not only thanks to the centrality of services that has made its capabilities appealing to companies, but also with a presence in diverse niches of the economy. For example, design is recognized for peculiar links with innovation, and in particular for a punctual and technical contribution to the innovation process in firms, either by innovation in meanings or in aesthetics and product definition (Mortati, 2015) (Utterback et al, 2007). In the new-networked order, designers are scaling up their practice to cover a role that sits further from the logics of function and aesthetic value, and to look more in-depth at the meaning of citizenship and its function in and for society through envisioning relevant new ways to produce goods, services, and even policy.…”

ABSTRACT"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." -Margaret MeadIn a post industrial age the current model of mass manufacture characterized by integrated organizations and economies of scale, a new production paradigm is emerging. Due to technology advances especially in the field of additive manufacturing (AM) small scale decentralized production is again a possibility. Where once the tools to produce goods were seen as large capital investment beyond the means of most small enterprises, it is now possible for individuals to access tools that are capable of producing consumer goods. This shift had led to the emergence of a social phenomenon that until now was bound to the digital world. Networks of individuals are coming together to collectively design, develop, manufacture and distribute goods through a network under the banner of the open hardware movement. This paper presents a case study of one such network designing and distributing open source prosthetics using a collaborative approach enabled by AM technology. It takes a contemporary definition of commons production as a framework to describe the network and assesses the role AM technology plays within it. Moreover, it discusses the potential role for design (both as a discipline and a profession) within this emerging socio-industrial system.

Abstract-Development and research of new products in fashion small and medium-sized enterprises often lacks of standard. Disarrangement of the developing decision process has the negative effect on their growth and marketing performance. In order to offering a reference decision making standard for them, a cross module decision managing process model is established. It is structured based on the new product developing business process, and also based on the interviews on twelve fashion small and medium-sized enterprises. Besides the model, three main research results are also obtained as following. Four decision modules are extracted. Important decision points are refined. And decision process with information flow and sequence flow is clarified.
