In the latest issue of the Design Journal<\/strong>, editor Prof Paul Atkinson<\/a> considers how we are adapting to ‘The New Normal’<\/a> in the COVID-19 era. In particular, he considers how the \u2018hacked\u2019 or innovated temporary design solutions to immediate problems are gradually being replaced with more permanent, professionally design alternatives. Newly-designed solutions continue to emerge.<\/p>\n

But more pressing for design researchers are the implications for design stemming from these new requirements for interpersonal relations\u2014how will it affect the practice of design research itself?<\/p>\n

How can the lengthy face-to-face, semi-structured interviews be satisfactorily substituted by conference calls? As more and more design research relies on participatory research methods, what then for the co-design workshop?<\/p>\n

The societal and behavioural changes the Coronavirus has wrought are certain to drastically alter the ways in which we as design researchers go about our work, and will need much careful thought and deliberation in the search for solutions.<\/p>\n

The articles in Volume 23 issue 5<\/strong> explore insights on collaborative research, cultural differences and observing people\u2019s reactions to stimuli. Two articles address issues of meaning and interpretation. The final two articles in this issue address reading and writing.<\/p>\n

Special issue<\/h3>\n

This issue also includes a Call for Papers on The Value of Design-Driven Entrepreneurship<\/a>. Guest editor Dr Ida Telalbasic from University of Loughborough asks how does design add value to the field of entrepreneurial activity, and does the field of entrepreneurship add value to the field of design? <\/strong><\/p>\n

The themes will be of particular relevance to design researchers interested in service design, entrepreneurship, ecosystems, systems thinking\/system design and innovation.<\/p>\n

Authors are invited to submit\u00a0full papers\u00a0<\/strong>(maximum 7000 words including\u00a0all<\/u> text) responding to the themes described in the Call for Papers<\/a> for consideration and review. A selection of accepted papers will be published in Vol. 24 Issue 5 in September 2021. Relevant\u00a0PhD Study Reports,<\/strong> or Book<\/strong> Reviews<\/strong> are also invited.<\/p>\n
