From ‘Do it yourself’ to ‘Open design’: users’ involvement and democratization

From ‘Do it yourself’ to ‘Open design’: users’ involvement and democratization

MALDINI, Irene

Full Article:

The involvement of users in objects’ creation and production has been linked to industrial design democratization. A parallelism between two cases, a DIY project from the 1970s and a current Open design project, is presented to understand how users (creators/ producers) have been involved. Design approaches have matured during this period; however, they still have a way to go concerning the development of democratic dynamics of creation and production.
