Design Culture Studies is a cross-disciplinary specialism, overlapping and interacting with a range of critical perspectives, methods and knowledge generated through the social sciences and humanities. The Design Culture Research Group researchers are typically engaged in research-driven writing, educating, curating and making and are particularly interested in the conjunctions of analysis, understanding and creative practices. It aims to provoke discussion and critical reflection, bringing new conversations to design and society.
